The photos in the previous post show the beautiful cherry paneling at the entrance to the library and the bookstore. Don Steider, AMBS Maintenance Director, made all the paneling and cherry trim in the library. He continues to use his woodworking skills to beautify the library. Just inside the entrance to the new building, each conversation group in the gallery has a coffee table with a solid cherry top made by Don.
Within the library and just across from the service desk, there is a seating area by a large east facing window. The clear-coated natural cherry has beautiful wood grain and is also sturdy enough to serve as an ottoman. It's nice to be able to prop your feet up when settling in to read in these comfy chairs.
In the north reading area, Don provided smaller tables to go with the lounge chairs. These seats are very popular among student seeking a quiet and comfortable place for serious reading.
The black metal bases were ordered online from Crate and Barrel. While a variety of tops are available from the manufacturer, we are pleased to have the tables finished right here in the AMBS woodshop. Thank you Don, Steider!
