Boonville Public Library Expanding COLUMBIA, MO (KBIA) - The Boonville Public Library is expanding. The new space across the street from the library's current location provides shelf space, meeting rooms and an updated children's section. The library has purchased the property but according to district director Linda Allcorn, it doesn't have enough funds yet to construct the building.

We will need to be involved in fundraising activities. There are not funds to complete the building project so the Friends of the Library are going to be very instrumental in assisting the library in raising funds for the building project.

So far they have scheduled a couple book sales to help raise funds. Allcorn says constructing the new building could cost more than one million dollars.
