Repairs to the Chelan Public Library building are moving forward after exploratory construction work revealed that moisture damage could be addressed for nearly $95,000 less than originally proposed, bringing the project close to its $150,000 budget and raising hopes that library services could return to the building by spring.

The Chelan City Council approved a contract with Impel Construction and an accompanying change order Oct. 27, reducing the cost of foundation repairs and moisture mitigation to $153,471.33.

We’re excited to welcome you to our new temporary location at the Lake Chelan Business Center (the old hospital)!

📍 We're moving!

Our pop-up library in the Chelan Public Library lobby closes Friday, August 21. We're reopening Monday, August 31 in a bigger temporary space at 503 E. Highland Ave #207, the old Chelan Hospital building which is now known as The HUB: Lake Chelan Business Center.

What that means for you:

📚 More shelves, more to browse
💻 More public computers
🎉 Room for programs again
🪑 Somewhere comfortable to sit

Open through the end of the year while the City's repairs move forward. The refreshed Chelan Library opens in 2027.
