Central Library to temporarily relocate

Apr. 9, 2023

The current site of the Central Library will close for renovations Sunday, April 16. The library will temporarily shift operations to the former Garland Women’s Activities Building, located just down the street at 713 Austin St., while the building is undergoing renovation. The work is expected to last 12 to 14 months.

When the renovations are complete, the Central Library will be back and better than ever with new technologies to include a video production studio and makerspace equipment. The renovated library will feature an exciting new place for children to learn through reading and hands-on play, more collaboration and study areas and new outdoor programming spaces.

During the renovation, patrons are encouraged to make use of the temporary facility, which we’re calling Central Library Express, and of the city’s three other branch libraries. For more information, visit Library.GarlandTX.gov.
