Library

Our libraries improve our quality of life. They provide valuable information, resources, services and programs that enrich our lives and advance our communities. Whether you are building a completely new library or a phased addition/renovation, the importance of a library to any thriving community is vital.

We bring more than 25 years of library building experience to the table, and use a proactive approach to ensure your investment will provide long-term benefits. Our mission is to help you achieve your goals, create the best possible building experience, and provide your community with a comfortable space that encourages learning and growth.

“It’s not always true that architects and contractors can call each other collaborators and colleagues. Mortenson has been a superb collaborator. We can be better designers by working side by side with them.”

"Your expertise at doing what you do gave me the comfort to focus on what I needed to be doing.  Knowing the project was in good hands, you also did an excellent job of teaching me and helping me to understand project related issues so I could make informed decisions as needed."

"Mortenson Construction and its employees played an essential role in what has turned out to be a very successful library project.  I'll certainly keep Mortenson Construction in mind should JCPL have the opportunity to build another library."
