Coventry, England – Blaze hit library reopens
A new-look Foleshill library has reopened in Coventry – 18 months after arsonists gutted the building.
In September 2003, the popular library was severely damaged after thieves stole 12 computers and then poured petrol on books to set the building on fire.
More than £500,000 of damage was caused in the blaze, which gutted the Broad Street building.
The library, which was built in 1912, was closed for 18 months while salvage work was carried out and the facility refurbished. Now the library’s new look has been unveiled.
