It may be surprising, but the El Dorado Hills Library will be twenty years old in 2026. When the library was built, funding for the land and some of the building came from Parker Development. El Dorado County assumed ownership of the land and responsibility for its maintenance via an agreement with Parker Development. The agreement included a clause about the maintenance of the Library’s signage. Sadly, over the years, the sign has fallen into disrepair. Consequently, there was a need to repair or replace the sign. With funding from the Serrano Men’s Book Club, which has been a very generous donor and partner of the Friends of the El Dorado Hills Library, the County, and the Friends agreed to replace the sign. You should see a new sign soon.

Additionally, last year, someone pointed out that the furniture in the Library had started looking worn. The Friends decided to re-upholster the couches. But once those had been upgraded and looked much improved, people noticed the chairs in the 3D lab started looking shabby. So, money has now been allocated to reupholster the chairs, too.
