Construction is underway on a new library branch in the city of Snellville’s Towne Center project. The library will occupy the first floor of the two-story building, and the second floor will be operated by the city for educational uses. The new facility will replace the existing branch on Lenora Church Road. The 22,000-square-foot library space will include adult, teen, and children’s areas, 20 computer workstations, and a multipurpose room.

The new library building will continue to be called the Elizabeth H. Williams branch. Gwinnett County and the city of Snellville are jointly funding the $10.2 million project using 2017 SPLOST program dollars.

The library is expected to open this fall of 2022.
