Going to get a bit sentimental here…From the short time I have known staff at library@orchard or affectionately, what we call OC, they are a great bunch of people with a lot of passion and synergy among them and I’m proud to be part of that team. Hats off to all of us!

Hi Lai Chow!
The one at *scape is definitely targetted at youth, or most probably, teens. The other not-yet-disclosed location will probably be complementing it by focusing on collections and services for working adults.

There’ll be a party at the library on our last day, Nov 30, we’re still working out the details of this, but no lelonging of stuff planned! ppl will probably be able to borrow their last bk from this location as we’re planning to be fully operational until the last min (8.59 )

Right said. Already looking forward to the return of library @ orchard! Any idea as to whether – due to its location at *.scape – the new library’s having a greater youth focus?

And because it was such an sprawling iconic part of the mall, wondering if you’re lining up any goodbye ceremony/ auctioning off bookshelves/ the sort

I was on course the last couple of days in Toa Payoh library. During the two-day course, it was not unusual for colleagues from other departments to start off conversations with, “Hey, I heard you guys are gonna close…”.

Haha. Well, numerous interesting conversations ensue from it. Conversations kinda picked up from there to work, family, hobbies, food, etc. So now when I hear someone goes “Hey, I heard you guys are gonna close…”, I see an opportunity to get to know a colleague better and also to find out about how they feel about us.

Psst… from what I gathered, everyone is excited about our comeback in 2010!
