HYANNIS – The Hyannis Public Library renovation project has received a $3 million boost from an anonymous donor.
Library officials said it’s the largest donation they have ever received, and will go a long way in kick-starting the long-awaited project.
The library was last renovated in 1974, when a new wing was added to the existing historic building.
Officials said they want to deliver a modern library space that combines traditional and new programs with the renovations.
The renovation project is expected to cost $8 million total and take three years to complete.
