Nix Library to close temporarily for ADA renovations
|
Nix Library will temporarily close to the public for facilities upgrades to bring the building to American Disabilities Act standards, starting Monday (Feb. 22).
The project includes the installation of an ADA-compliant wheelchair lift and an accessible public bathroom.
Located on South Carrollton Avenue, Nix Library has been a part of the New Orleans Public Library since 1930. Executive Director and City Librarian Gabriel Morley said the renovations will make Nix better equipped to serve the entire community.
