Lower Level Reopening Schedule

Article Date
February 20, 2026

Dear Cary Library Community,

We will soon be reopening Cary Library’s renovated Lower Level. To move thousands of books back to their new home, Cary Library will have modified hours for 3 weeks starting March 2. Please keep in mind that during this transition time, the Youth Collection (both Children’s and Teen books) will have limited to no availability.

We will be extending due dates so nothing will be due during our 3 weeks of modified hours, and it would help the library if you hold onto your returns until regular hours resume.

Please note: We will NOT be accepting any donations during the move back to the Lower Level from March 2-20.
