After five months, the library and Family Resource Center reopen

August 13, 2024

Texas Children’s is thrilled to announce renovations to the Houston Pi Beta Phi Patient/Family Library and Barbara Adams Resource Center are complete. Still located on West Tower 16, the freshly finished space is ready for patients, families and team members!

The space features beautiful woodland murals, book nooks and rolling bookcases. It’s also outfitted with screens and projectors, new lighting and plenty of comfortable benches, all waiting to whisk patients and families into the wonderful word of books.

As a reminder, patients are welcome to check out books, board games, puzzles and DVDs. Please return any checked out items to the library after using them.

The library is open 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. on Friday. Beginning in October, Junior League Provisionals will be working on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

Library Time with Melman will also begin on Thursday afternoons in the coming weeks! Additionally, Library coordinator Catherine Zdunkewicz is excited to announce author events will be returning. On August 29 at 2 p.m., Harrison’s Heroes will bring in an author for a reading.

Stop by to say hello to Catherine and take a look at all the fantastic work done on this space!
