In the summer of 2021, major renovations took place in Loup County's Media Center. New lights, outlets, carpets, paint, tables, chairs, and bookshelves were installed. It gave this space a completely new look that is loved and used by all. We are extremely grateful to everyone that took part in making this happen. If you haven't gotten to come to see for yourself, enjoy these photos until you can stop and visit!
