The 10,000 square foot addition to the Sanibel Public Library will be completed "by the middle of May or close to it," according to Bob Bower, Project Superintendent for Compass Construction. "We're gonna try." . The building is in its final stages of construction, with roof panels going on by the end of next week. Fortunately, says Mr. Bower, the shell is the primary component of a library building. "It's all open space inside," he says. "We have two walls on the first floor and eight walls on the second, and that's it." Patricia Allen, Library Director, says the addition will house a Local History room and three new meeting rooms. The library will also move the audiovisual collec- tion to the back to make room for and books on CD. The magazine collection will move to a quiet area that overlooks the lake. Mrs. Allen relates that building and expansion of the original library on Tarpon Bay were financed in part by bake sales and sales of special "Sanibel Library" license plates. Fortunately, over time the Library Board saved enough money to pay first for the current building, built in 1994, and then for the expansion as well. "We had no separate bond issue," she says. Mrs. Allen, who came to Sanibel in 1991, was instru- mental in the design of the current library. She and her staff developed a wish list for the library layout, hoping to keep services together and noisy areas separated from quiet ones. With Sheeley Architects of Fort Myers, she visited Photo by Jenny Burnham other libraries in Lee County to find out what worked and second violation, and trucks without permits are banned existing library building, replacing windows with impact didn't work in their buildings.
