The D.C. Public Library released a $175 million improvement plan Thursday designed to extend library access to more residents across the city by the end of the current decade.
Called Next Libris, the plan will capitalize on the momentum gained during its current renovation plan, which will ultimately see the modernization of 24 of the city’s 26 libraries.
That project included major work on the central library, Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, located between Metro Center and Gallery Place.
While the current improvement project is scheduled to end in 2024, the next project, according to the library’s Master Plan, will run through 2030.
