"If was not Complicated They Would not Need Us."

-Benjamin Gustafson

The mission of the Maplewood Community Library project is centered on delivering innovative and community-focused expertise. The Technical Approach encompasses various objectives, including the expansion of the building, repurposing spaces to cater to different user groups' needs, and integrating additional programming. Furthermore, it entails the improvement of workstations, addressing maintenance concerns, and soliciting input from library stakeholders and industry experts. The project scope encompasses the expansion of the current facility, acquisition of additional property, and cost estimation. Subsequent phases will entail the development of design options, cost estimation, and seeking community approval.
