Hoyt Library Elevator CLOSED

Hoyt Library is getting a new elevator! All areas of the library will be open during the installation, but starting Wednesday, January 21, elevator service will be down for approximately 3-4 weeks. That leaves stairs to get into and around the building. 

Patrons with mobility concerns can call (989) 755-0904 for assistance or visit one of our other library branches.
