Clarksville Branch Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

Join us on Thursday, January 24 at 4:00 p.m. at the Clarksville Branch for our ribbon cutting ceremony and open house to celebrate the completion of our expansion and renovation project!

A brief program will take place from 4:00 – 4:30 p.m., followed by the open house which will go until 7:00 p.m. Light refreshments will be served. All members of the community are invited to come see the fabulous changes that have taken place through the partnership between Kovert Hawkins Architects and Koetter Construction.

With the expansion, the Clarksville Branch now has three rooms that can be used by the community for meetings, two of which have a kitchenette, as well as the addition of three private study rooms. The Town of Clarksville Redevelopment Commission donated $75,000 which was used to purchase new technology equipment for the Clarksville Branch. The Duke Energy Foundation donated $15,000 to establish a rain garden, and Stemler Plumbing also made a donation. The new technology equipment includes the addition of new computers for adults, teens, and children, new self-check kiosks, and a mobile technology lab so that computer classes can be presented at the Clarksville Branch. The interior decorating at the Clarksville Branch Library gives it a fresh and vibrant look that our patrons will enjoy.

Clarksville branch will be CLOSED August 27 – October 3

To expedite the remodeling process, the Clarksville Branch Library will be CLOSED for the following extended period of time:

Monday, August 27 – Wednesday, October 3

The Branch will resume its limited Thursday – Saturday hours beginning Thursday, October 4.

You can still return materials using the 3 book returns on the Eastern Boulevard side of the building while the Branch is closed. Note that there are no book returns on the Triangle Drive side.

We apologize for this inconvenience but welcome you to use the Main Library instead during this time! You can read more about the changes happening at the Clarksville Branch on our Renovations page.

Clarksville Groundbreaking

Thanks to everyone who came to the groundbreaking ceremony for the Clarksville Branch Library’s renovation project on April 3rd! We held the actual ceremony indoors due to the high winds but we made it outside to actually break some ground. Check out a few photos from the event:
