Helena, MT
The Library building at 120 S. Last Chance Gulch has been an anchor of the community since it was built in 1976. It has seen many transformations over the years. The most recent renovation was fifteen years ago. Since that time, Libraries have evolved; the Helena community’s needs have changed; technology constantly advances. The Library’s 2018 Strategic Plan has guided us towards a re-imagining of the interior spaces of the Library. And the Strategic Plan tells us we need to make the building safe and accessible for all users. The Strategic Plan clearly states that our children and teen spaces need improvement and modernization. All of these changes were made with the Library’s increased demands on programs and community space in mind. The Library is a popular building, open to the public, and a community gathering space. The Library strives to be the community’s Living Room and we want to make it as comfortable for our guests as possible.
