But library officials say they hope to keep the building open for patrons throughout the 18- to 21-month construction, which will add a 600-seat forum for large-scale events, a larger MakerSpace, more conference rooms and co-working spaces as well as a recording studio.

The Transformation Project is expected to cost $19.5 million, with the bulk of that coming from donations.
