This summer, the College Hill Library building is closed for a large-scale HVAC replacement project. Services are moving to the Rotunda at Front Range Community College (FRCC). This temporary location will operate from June 14 through August 14.
The temporary facility will still offer public computer use, a popular browsing collection for check out, story time and other programs for all ages.
The joint public-academic library is located at the west end of Front Range Community College’s Westminster Campus. It is run collaboratively by the City of Westminster and FRCC—and is open to everyone.
The FRCC Rotunda is located just east of the library—look for the flagpoles to find the entrance for the temporary location. See a map and more details here.
