Books Destroyed When Sprinkler Pipe Bursts at Burlington Library

The Burlington Library was forced to close Saturday when a frozen sprinkler pipe burst and sent water pouring into the children’s department.

According to a post on the library’s Facebook page, a pipe burst Saturday afternoon and destroyed 78 picture books. The library will be closed through at least Monday while crews work to repair the broken sprinkler pipes and reassemble everything.

The library will backdate any returns to avoid late fees.

Renewals can still be made online. For more information, click here.
