Some photos taken today of the Dinas Powys Library & Activity Centre rebuilding project, which is part-funded by the European Union through Welsh Government Ministers.

Note the larger windows, which will let more natural light into the building.

New library layout

Dinas Powys library is being renovated: a building project partly funded by the European Union through Members of the Welsh Assembly Government. The layout of the building is being changed to ensure a sustainable future for the community library, which must now generate a significant monthly income to stay operational. Therefore, the new plans incorporate, amongst other things, a small coffee shop, a new multi-use function room, energy-efficiency LED lighting, new flooring and decoration.

Today's photographs show the first of the new internal walls going in, and a peak at the latest building plans!

Temporary library opens in Bethesda Chapel

From today until Saturday 13 April 2019, Dinas Powys library will operate its usual opening hours at a temporary location in nearby Bethesda Chapel.

In the first photo, church worker Matthew Lewis and Keith Hatton (Library Trustee and Re-building project Sponsor/Manager) stand by the banner outside the Chapel. Other photos show inside the temporary library (turn right inside the entrance), and finally the chapel and the library in the same shot.
