The Hampton Main Library Children’s Department is going to be closed due to renovations from Thursday, May 14 through Friday, May 29. Patrons are encouraged to visit the children’s departments at the three branch libraries:
- Phoebus, 1 South Mallory Street

The Hampton Main Library, located at 4207 Victoria Boulevard, is undergoing major renovations which began in March of this year. The 22 year-old building is receiving its first facelift since its initial construction in 1987.
Renovations will include new carpet, wall coverings, improved lighting, updated computer labs, improvements to the quiet study area and an overall more modern appearance. In addition, the Children’s Department will be going through a lot of exciting changes to enhance early childhood learning and family literacy activities. There will also be improved display shelving in the best sellers, DVD, and audio book areas which are the most popular among library patrons.
The renovation is expected to be completed over the next 6 to 8 months. For pictures, details, and updates of the renovation visit www.hamptonpubliclibrary.org
