After more than 40 years, the Timaru Library got its much-needed repair and renovation through the Timaru District Council’s funding budget in 2019.
The repair works include the following: roof waterproofing, insulation, ceiling, carpets, paintwork, heating, and energy-efficient lighting.
How the Timaru District Council, together with the Timaru Library management, implemented successfully the planned renovations is what Ross Waugh presented in the video.
On 26th March, when New Zealand was on Alert Level 4, the highest level with the strictest lockdown measures, Ross published the article, “COVID-19 Carpe Diem Strategy – Libraries.”
He talked about how the lockdowns allow for catching up on operations, streamlining processes, updating systems as necessary and undertaking any major maintenance or capital expenditure if it is likely disruptive to the facility.
Watch the video and know what the Timaru Library did to take advantage of the disruption that the pandemic caused.
Waugh Infrastructure Management appreciates the successful repair and rehabilitation project that the Timaru District Council and the Timaru Library implemented.
Thanks to Adele Hewlett, Timaru District Council Libraries Manager, for allowing Ross and his team to shoot this video blog.
