Grass Valley Library Planning Accessibility Upgrades
The Grass Valley Library is hosting a listening session this Thursday to gather community input on improving accessibility while preserving the historic building’s character.
Community members are invited to what’s called an Accessibility Listening Session at the Grass Valley Library Thursday afternoon. Branch Manager Aubree Burkholder says they especially want to hear from people with disabilities and their advocates, including caregivers, about their experiences and potential barriers…
Burkholder says that includes improving walkability access downstairs…
Burkholder says a 10-thousand-dollar grant has been received
from the American Library Association. So community feedback will help guide
priorities. No specific projects have been determined. But any improvements
also need to consider preserving the building’s historical character. Burkholder
says it’s hoped work can begin during the early or middle part of next year. The
Accessibility Listening Session is from three to four-pm on Thursday. And those
unable to attend can still share feedback directly with the library.
