This week, the move of books and materials from the old Christa McAuliffe Library branch in Saxonville to the new branch on Water Street began.

The current McAuliffe branch will close on Friday, Feb. 12 at 5 p.m., with the new branch opening the following week. Book drop at the Saxonville branch will remain until March 11.

There will be an open house for the public at the New McAuliffe branch on Saturday, Feb. 13 from 1 to 4 p.m. The Framingham Library Trustees and staff are inviting the public to walk-through the new library to experience the new state-of-the-art building, greet the staff, and learn about the building's unique architecture.
