Revitalize Randall

Articles related to the approximately $6.7 million in borrowing

needed for the renovation of the Randall Library was approved at

Annual Town Meeting in May 2022. With a positive vote at the Town

Election, the project was given final approval to move forward.

Project Goals

• Bring the library building up to code and safely house our

materials.

• Maintain Randall Library’s historic charm, while also functioning

in a way that more effectively serves our modern needs.

• Use existing square footage more efficiently, to better

accommodate our materials and resources in a way that best

suits the needs of patrons.

• Create new entrances—more accessible and safer for patrons to

access.

• Offer bright, inviting, and useful spaces for programs, learning,

and collaboration, accommodating user needs of all ages.
