Friday open house at Carnegie.Serving Gogebic, Iron and Ontonagon Counties By MEGAN HUGHES Ironwood — Representatives of the Ironwood Carnegie Library are hosting an open house on Friday from 1 to 5 p.m.to welcome the community to their new library addition.The Friday open house will begin at 11:30 a.m.with an official welcome and presentation, followed by a small luncheon and tours.Dedicated to children’s media, the new space has been a project in the works since 2024, according to Library Director Lynne Wiercinski.In that year, the library first learned about a grant from the Michigan Office of Labor and Economic Opportunity and ultimately applied for and received a $750,000 grant, which was less than hoped.At that point, revisions were made.“We had to modify it quite a bit to make sure that we could most effectively use the money that they gave us,” said Wiercinski, “and that’s when our Friends of the Library stepped in and started the Patronicity campaign.That helped us to be able to do some of the extra things that we would not have been able to do with just the grant.It feels like it has been a part of our life for a long time, and we are glad the day is finally here.” Designed by Meyer Group Architecture of Duluth, Minnesota, and constructed by Ruotsala Construction Inc.in Ironwood, the new space adheres to historical standards, with the structure maintaining the same exterior appearance as the main building.According to Wiercinski, the addition’s whimsical woodland theme was inspired by a few pieces of art that had been purchased for the room.She said that several people already have received tours of the space, including a group of high schoolers, who gave their seal of approval on the choice of furniture, especially the mushroom-shaped chairs.
