Tour of Libraries: William K Sanford Town Library (AKA Colonie Library)
The William K Sanford Town Library, next door to the Times Union Newspaper building, lies at the end of Wolf Road, a shopping/restaurant destination for the Albany area, and close to the Albany airport. When approaching from Wolf Road you have to make a slingshot around a roundabout.
From what I can tell, this low brick building is technically one story, with a second story wedged in by sheer willpower. They have done a lot to make what they have attractive and useful, but it could really
do with a renovation. (Update: They are planning renovations. “We will be repairing the roof, then renovating. We will moving departments to better use our space, and we’ve been getting input from the community,” said Library Director Evelyn Neale ) As I was trying to take pictures, I found it difficult because there were people everywhere, tucked into every nook and cranny, reading, studying, working on laptops, tutoring and browsing.
