Eleven years after the Wisconsin Audit Bureau named the Demmer Library one of the top libraries in the state, ten years
after the Demmer Library Building Committee was formed, six years after first formal needs assessment was completed
and first conceptual designs were presented, 5 years after focused fundraising began, three years after Three Lakes
voters approved a referendum, two years after the Demmer Design and Construction Committee was established to
select an architect and oversee the design and construction project, and one year after bids were opened, we are opening
the doors to the Demmer Next Generation!
It truly takes a village, an army, and a whole lot of sweat to get a job like this done, and I’m truly grateful to everybody
who put in the hours or cheered us on to make it happen. This is YOUR library, so come and make yourself at home!
Are you fostering books? Your books should have had their due dates changed to 3-1-2019. We will begin recalling
books once we are mostly moved in, starting in February. If you have any questions or concerns about returning books
in February, please call the library at 715-546-3391 or email [email protected].
You can stay up-to-date by following us on Facebook or at www.demmerlibrary.org/demmer-2018. Also, check out our
