Ballyfermot Public Library contingency services will commence at Ballyfermot Civic Centre, Ballyfermot Road from Monday September 14th 2009, following temporary closure of the permanent Library facility for essential refurbishment works. Library users can also borrow or return books at any Dublin City Branch Library. The Civic Centre will open from Monday to Saturday inclusive from 10.00hrs to 17.00hrs. Internet services will be available and the Centre is wheelchair accessible.
The closure was necessary to facilitate Access works approved under the Dublin City Council Sectoral Plan, grant aided by the DOEHLG National Disability Strategy 2009, and to allow for necessary roof repairs. Roof repairs were conducted as required over the years, but the nature of the current works programme requires that customers and staff should not be on site for health and safety reasons during the refurbishment.
All interested parties and local Groups were advised in advance of the closure including two Groups operating from Offices at the Library.
