It’s been a long road to recovery for the Fort Myers Beach Public Library. The building suffered significant damage in Hurricane Ian, most notably the elevator was rendered useless and has been the biggest headache getting repaired.
You may have seen the library team sprucing up the landscaping in recent weeks. That’s in anticipation that the library may finally be able to reopen to the public in March.
Operations Manager Elizabeth Rhodes tells Beach Talk Radio News that final repairs have been made to the elevator this week with an inspection scheduled for yesterday. Then it’s onto the occupancy inspection. If all goes according to plan, the library staff will host a grand reopening party sometime in March
In the meantime, curbside service is still being offered Monday-Friday 9 am to 5 pm. Library visitors can receive materials, notary service, and fax and print services by calling 239-765-8162.
