A new $17 million public library on the west side of Lexington will open Saturday. The Marksbury Family Branch is named for the foundation that provided the lead, 500-thousand dollar gift. The two-story library is about three times the size of the Village Branch it replaces. Kate Baughman is the marketing manager for the Lexington Public Library.
“This library, in particular, serves its community, like a community center, it's a really great location. It's really walkable, a lot of folks coming into that neighborhood get there by foot; by foot traffic is a huge source of traffic for us.”
