Scarborough Library closes today for a 13 week refurbishment.
£450,000 will be spent on Scarborough Library during a major refit which will include work to the Children's Library, a new IT area and a community and exhibition space.
During the closure some services will be provided at other locations and many groups that use the building have temporarily relocated.
Shaun Tymon from Andy's Man Club says they have found somewhere else to go.
The library will close on Saturday, February 18, and is scheduled to reopen on Monday, May 22.
Customers will be able to borrow additional books to cover the closure period and arrangements have been made to cover home library service deliveries.
People needing to access essential services online will be able to use two dedicated computers at the Customer First centre on St Nicolas Street.
The nearest facilities for people wanting to visit a library during the closure are Newby and Scalby, More Than Books at Eastfield and Derwent Valley Bridge in Ayton. Details of opening times can be found at www.northyorks.gov.uk/libraries The mobile library will also visit Aberdeen Walk on Mondays, excluding bank holidays, between 2pm and 4pm during the closure period.
Shaun Tymon from Andy's Man club has welcomed the upgrades to the library, he says for them finding a new temporary home has been a bit of a challenge but local firm "Go For It UK" have stepped in.
