Nickerson
& O'Day had the pleasure of receiving
both the 1962 and the 1998 Bangor Public Library Expansion
project contracts. The most recent renovation opened the stacks
and included repair of the building's facade, rotunda, entry and
interior. A more convenient, ground level entrance was
constructed for easier accessibility. More quite public
spaces were created away
from the upgraded computer center.
Children now enjoy a brilliant wing of their own offering
shelving and fixtures that are scaled down for these smaller
patrons. The community room was built into and follows the
contour of the hill to the rear of the library, allowing for
preservation of the adjacent park that is a favorite among local
residence.
