Plymouth-Whitemarsh High School

Renovations to the Plymouth-Whitemarsh High School library included a new multi-media room adjacent to the main library.

A second story balcony was removed to allow more daylight into the 8,227 s.f. library and reading rooms. Renovations also included the bibliographic instruction room (computer lab). New finishes, flooring, windows, and updated furnishings completely transformed this space into an inviting, and user-friendly, environment.

A cafe bar was added to further enhance the overall look and appeal of the library and entice the students to come in and stay longer.
