Belmont Library has more than doubled in size to approximately 15,000 square feet, keeping the original 1924 brick building (last updated in 2000 and not a Carnegie building) and adding a new, two-story addition. Gifts to @thelibraryfoundation supported the creation of an interactive early learning space, a teen room for students to gather and study, and mobile creative learning lab at Belmont Library.
