The Library of Virginia regrets that it will be closed on Saturday,
April 7, 2007. We have just learned the details of the U.S. Open Cycling
Championship, an international bicycle race from Williamsburg to
Richmond.  The last leg of the race will be a closed course circuit
around downtown Richmond with the Start/Finish line directly in front of
the Library of Virginia building.  The event will last all day and will
involve extensive street closings. Attendance is estimated at 40,000 to
100,000. Access to the Library parking decks will be virtually
impossible all day.
