BETHESDA, Md. (AP) — Local officials in Montgomery County are celebrating the reopening of a renovated library in Bethesda.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held Saturday for the Montgomery County Public Libraries Little Falls branch.
The improvements include a new information and circulation customer service desk and a redesign of the children’s area. A new chiller and roof also were added, as well as new carpeting. There also was a complete makeover of the restrooms.
