Contractors for the new Christchurch central library are looking down into their site these days from raised construction sheds, while prospects for readers are looking up. The Canterbury Public Library is the City Council’s most-used facility, and its popularity is growing even in the old Cambridge Terrace building. Membership is now 82,210, up from 79,460 a year ago. The full new Oxford Terrace site is now available for construction, after demolition of part of Haywrights in the background.
