Big changes are coming to the Mead Children’s Library at the Raymond M. Blasco, MD Memorial Library, and Erie County Public Library (ECPL) wants your input before the first plans are drawn.

With funding awarded through the Pennsylvania Department of Community & Economic Development’s Multi-Purpose Community Facilities Program, the project will focus on creating a redesigned space that supports work, education, and health monitoring for at least five years. To ensure the renovation meets the needs of local families, educators, and children, ECPL is inviting the public to weigh in.

Patrons are encouraged to complete a brief survey, available online at this link or in print at any ECPL branch before the August 23 deadline. The feedback will guide priorities for the redesigned space.

All responses will be reviewed by the project’s design team, helping shape a vibrant, functional library area that grows with the community.

Feedback on other ECPL services or locations can be submitted through the library’s suggestion box or comment cards at branch locations.
