On Friday, trustees and volunteers met in Dinas Powys Library & Activity Centre (Diplac) to see the results of the renovation work, which has been carried out by Precision Construction. It just needs the IT to be put in place, before the library re-opens at 10 am on Monday 29 April. The renovation work has been part-funded by the European Union (EAFRD) through Welsh Ministers.
Here trustees and volunteers toast the completion of the work (and help behind the counter in the new kitchen/coffee bar area), while other photos show the new function room and the traditional library stacks.

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!
