Wauconda library's main entrance reopens

The main entrance of the Wauconda Area Library has reopened following the reconstruction of the stairway outside the building.

New stairs and ramps leading to the front doors were part of the nearly $1.6 million effort at the library, 801 N. Main St. Additionally, a driveway has been widened, LED lighting fixtures are being installed and greenery will be planted, among other changes.

Customers had been using a doorway near the Kid City department to enter and exit the building during the project.
