Prince George's County Memorial Library System, MD, welcomed the renovated Bowie Branch on June 29. The nearly six-month remodel, the first major construction to the 40,449 square foot branch since 1999, includes a Main Street-themed children's space, eight new study rooms, a bookstore/ cafe, an updated teen zone, new service desks, additional electrical outlets, a meeting room kitchenette, and fresh lighting fixtures. Helmed by Gant Brunnett Architects, with Nardi Construction, Inc., the project is partially funded through the County Library Capital Grant Program, Maryland State Library.
