Gray said the library will part of the
Bay St. Louis CSX railroad station project. The city has agreed to provide 3,000 square feet of space on the second floor of the depot.
Under the agreement, Anderson will continue to manage the library and will be supported by paid employees and volunteers coordinated by the historical society. The library, named for the late Lulu Williams Anderson, will also retain its name and will be kept intact.
Gray said plans call for closing the library at William Carey before Thanksgiving and re-opening after the move to its new location.
If the depot work is not complete, a
temporary location will be found.
The library has been in two other locations but has always been in Gulfport.
