The Lisle Library's renovation project

 began on September 4, 2007. The first

 indication that something was happening 

was the sign going up at the 

west entrance.

Renovation Sign Supplies were delivered. In the first week 

the east entrance was excavated to prepare 

it to become the new main entrance.  Concrete 

footings were poured and electricity was installed 

for new lighting.
