The Oak Bay Branch of the Greater Victoria Public Library will remain closed for significantly longer than initially planned.
A week after closing the library for asbestos testing, the District of Oak Bay announced Friday that it has decided to "proactively" continue the closure for "up to 12 weeks" while it works on "abatement of asbestos-containing materials" in the facility.
"The district is awaiting results from the additional testing undertaken this week and will provide an update when the test results are received."
