Hartford’s Downtown Library is closed for a few months after a pipe burst and caused water damage over Christmas weekend.
All programs are being shifted to other Hartford Public Library branches and hours have been extended.
The libraries website states
"We appreciate everyone who has reached out asking how they can support Hartford Public Library after the Downtown Library suffered significant water damage due to a burst pipe on Christmas Eve. We are pleased to announce the launch of the HPL Restore & Renew campaign to help cover any repairs or restorations to the Downtown Library that may not be covered by insurance. While there is insurance to cover costs associated with cleanup and repair, we anticipate there may be additional costs that will not be covered.
