Countdown to Grand Opening

The grand opening is almost here! We can’t wait for you to see the branch in person. Until then, enjoy this interview and tour of the new Union Twp. Branch Library. Thank you to Kathy Lehr and the staff at Clermont Today!

UNION TWP. BRANCH LIBRARY GRAND OPENING, SUNDAY JANUARY 29, 1-3PM

The grand opening of the new Union Township Branch Library will take place on Sunday, January 29, 1-3pm at 4450 Glen-Este Withamsville Rd., Cincinnati.

The former location of the Union Township Branch, 4462 Mt. Carmel-Tobasco Rd., was recently sold. The library is asking that customers not drop off any materials at the former location, as they will not be retrieved. Customers can now return items to the material bins located outside at the new Union Township location, 4450 Glen Este-Withamsville.

“The new library branch is still under construction so we’re asking the public to please not enter the branch,” said Executive Director David Mezack. “Everything is on schedule for the January 29 grand opening. We’re positive the unveiling of the new branch is going to be worth the wait.”

During the grand opening, take a tour of the new facilities and be sure to checkout the woodland-themed kids’ area. Other activities scheduled for the day include:

  • Performance by the library’s Hands Up! Puppet Troupe
  • Facepainting for kids
  • Wii & xbox gaming sessions
  • Live performance and music by the Anderson Senior Steppers
  • Meet Browser, the library’s new mascot
  • Register to win the doorprize – a Kindle eReader
  • Light refreshments will be served

Hope to see you there!

Union Twp. Branch Outlook Good

Thanks to everyone who attended the recent ODOT meeting to discuss the road improvement project that could possibly affect the new Union Twp. Branch Library.

Executive Director Dave Mezack offers his thoughts:

“The meeting was well attended by members of the public, the Library Board of Trustees , Administration, and UT staff. From a personal perspective and opinion, and after listening to comments made by ODOT representatives, and other authorities, I do not believe there will be any impact to the new Union Township Library property, at least for the foreseeable future. In short, and in my opinion,  I remain confident the new library will remain untouched for quite some time.”

Road Project Could Impact Future Of New Library

Clermont County Public Library encourages all members of the public to attend a public meeting concerning the future of the new Union Township Branch Library.

The meeting is scheduled for September 28, 2011 from 5:00-7:00pm at the Union Township Civic Center, 4350 Aicholtz Road, to discuss plans related to Route 32 and the Eastern Corridor Project.

The proposed project plans have changed in such a way that the Union Township Branch Library site may now be impacted.

Construction on the new Union Twp. Branch Library

This photo of the new Union Township Branch Library was taken on June 29, 2011 and you can finally see the building taking shape. We know the community is eagerly awaiting the grand opening, as are we! But we also wanted to make sure you knew something very important:

The current Union Township Branch is still open!

The current Union Township Branch is located at 4462 Mt. Carmel-Tobasco Rd., Cincinnati and open for business! We received some calls and comments that let us know we needed to clear up this confusion right away, as some people thought we were closed until the new branch opened! The operating hours for the Union Twp. Branch Library are the same as for the other nine branches in the system:

Mon-Tues, 12-8
Wed-Thur, 10-6
Fri-Sat, 9-5

Not only is the branch still open, but there are a handful of family-friendly programs being offered this summer. Stop into the branch and say hi!
