If you've been by the Central Branch recently, you may have noticed that the lights are on. We didn't leave for the day and forget to turn them off, we have had to leave them on intentionally.
Near the end of January, our last functioning boiler cracked its heat exchanger. The building works on a breaker system, so if we need power to the electrical outlets, that means the lights are on too as they are on the same breakers. The parts necessary to fix the boiler were going to be too expensive to obtain and take a long time to arrive, so temporary heaters are running throughout the building to make sure the pipes don't freeze.
