NewsOK.com | Pioneer Library System board OKs design for Noble project

NewsOK.com | Pioneer Library System board OKs design for Noble project: "The architectural design for a renovated and expanded Noble Public Library received the go-ahead Tuesday from the Pioneer Library System board.

The board also authorized architect Mark Krittenbrink of Krittenbrink & Associates of Norman to prepare cost estimates for the project, a bid list and other documents needed for construction.

Krittenbrink displayed drawings of the renovated library's new exterior as well as floor plans for two additions, totaling about 6,600 square feet, that will more than double the size of the existing library, located at 204 N Fifth in Noble.

Krittenbrink said members of the Noble Library Committee provided input that guided the size and scope of the design.
...
When completed, the expanded library will have a new covered front entrance, more convenient parking, enlarged children's and preschool areas, a crafts and story-time room, a community room with seating for 216 people and a larger adult reading area with two small meeting rooms, the architect said.
...
Improvements for the library are possible because of a $1 million bequest from longtime Noble resident and library supporter A. Coman Culbert."
