Building for the future:

In 2019, the Toledo Library enlisted HBM Architects and Interior Designers to develop a facilities master plan that examined its locations and provided a list of priorities and recommendations to help move TLCPL forward. This working plan was based on data collected during 2018 and continues to evolve based on the changing needs of the communities the Library serves. Below are key takeaways for the Maumee Branch.

A digital copy of the full 200-plus page facilities master plan is available upon request.

Branch overview (based on 2018 data)

Service population: 26,682 (6.3% of total service population)
Median age: 41
Households with children: 31.7%
Households: 10,614
Mean household income: $77,609
Population living below the poverty line: 7.08%
Gross square feet: 19,049 square feet
Year constructed: 1918, renovated in 2001
Collection size: 69,918 items
Programs: 357 in 2018
Meeting room size: 1,796 square feet
Meeting room capacity: 180 people

General Observations

  • The building layout has an old, traditional library feel to the space.
  • The building needs a complete update in layout and interiors from top to bottom, including the service points.
  • Spaces need to be rebalanced.
  • Self-service opportunities are limited with the vestibule providing the majority of self service.
  • There are currently no small meeting or tutor rooms.

In spring 2024, the Library sent a survey to the Lucas County community to learn what you love about your Library and how we could improve our buildings to better meet your needs. This is what 291 Maumee neighbors said they wanted in an updated space.

The site of the Maumee Branch has seen a rich history. It’s been a seminary, a courthouse, a glass factory, and was the site of Dudley’s Massacre, an ambush set by the British and the Native Americans during the War of 1812 that saw 220 members of the U.S. Military lost and 350 captured. The Maumee Branch was founded in 1918 through a donation of the Maumee battle site and $10,000 from Andrew Carnegie. In 2001, the Branch underwent a renovation. The Friends of the Library originated at this location in 1973 and continues to support the TLCPL system today.
