Last month, when the Seattle Public Library announced upgrade work was ahead for the West Seattle (Admiral) branch, it said a two-week closure would be needed as part of the project, likely in September. The dates have just been announced, and it’s coming up sooner – the second half of August. Here’s the announcement:
The West Seattle Branch and book drop, 2306 42nd Ave. SW, will be closed from Monday, Aug. 17 through Sunday, Aug. 30 while the front steps are being replaced as part of an exterior construction project to improve access to the branch.
The branch is scheduled to reopen at 10 a.m. Monday, Aug. 31.
While the branch is closed, patrons may choose any other Library location as a pickup location for items placed on hold and may return materials to any branch. If patrons don’t select an alternate branch, their holds will be sent to the Southwest Branch, 9010 35th Ave. SW, 206-684 7455.

· Delridge Branch, 5423 Delridge Way SW, 206-733-9125
