Petersburgh Library Raising Funds For Ramp Improvements

August 13, 2015 By eastwickpress

submitted by Sharon Hodges

The Petersburgh Public Library has begun fund raising to help pay for a new ramp for the library.  The ramp was put in around 1978 and was up to the codes of that era.  The ADA codes have been changed since that time and the ramp needs to be improved.  [private]Plans are in place to have the work done this fall.  Since the library was first renovated in 1998 it has relied on grants and the generosity of the public to make improvements to the library.  We are once again appealing to the public to support this important improvement in access to the library.  The library has begun a gofundme campaign so that anyone who would like to support the library in this endeavor can do so easily.   There is a link on the website or if you want to go directly, the web address is: http://www.gofundme.com/petersburghlibrary  Should enough money be raised for the ramp there are additional library needs that are listed at that site.  If anyone has any questions please do not hesitate to contact the library directly at 658-2927 during regular library hours.[/private]
