North Fulton residents can get an update Thursday on the new Milton Library, which is being built through a bond referendum. The project’s architectural and engineering team from Stevens and Wilkinson, in association with 720 Design, will give a progress report and answer questions.

Fulton County is in the midst of a $275 million library building program that, in its first phase, will add eight new libraries and expand two. The meeting starts at 7 p.m. at Milton City Hall, 13000 Deerfield Parkway, Suite 107. Information: 404-730-1777 or www.afpls.org.
