They have been great to work with even though we have suffered serious delays due to COVID, but I guess that is true for everybody trying to do projects like this Mark Morton Director Leland Township Public Library 203 E Cedar St Leland, MI 49654 231-256-9152 [cid:image002.jpg@01D6D7B5.87647B10] Hi Melissa, We are currently working with Quinn Evans.

They did a great job overall and they actually brought Library Design in for pieces due to Library Design's exclusive contracts and library knowledge.

I am using them again for our flood damage repair now. They are great! Also, for our type of shelving they are the only distributer in Michigan. -Miriam [cid:image008.jpg@01D6D7B5.87647B10] Miriam Andrus Director, Grace A. Dow Memorial Library 1710 W.

Dennis Jensen is who I have worked most closely with in recent projects. His email is dennis.jensen@C2AE.com<mailto:dennis.jensen@C2AE.com>. Good luck! Kristin Kristin Shelley, Director East Lansing Public Library kshelley@cityofeastlansing.com<mailto:kshelley@cityofeastlansing.con> 517-319-6913 (office) 517-420-0340 (cell) Hi Melissa, I have worked with Dennis Jenson of C2AE in the past and he was always very good. He did the work on the Grant Area District Library and Tamarack District Library here in Lakeview. I just talked to him recently about a project we are doing up here and although he was not interested, he directed us to a couple of other companies to try. Perhaps if his firm is not interested, Dennis can refer you to a company that would be. Good luck! Deb Deborah L. Bose, Interim Director Tamarack District Library MLS, Retired The Ellis branch of the Monroe County Library System had a fabulous designer. You can see virtual tours of the different areas on their website. https://monroe.lib.mi.us/ellis-video-tours<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fmonroe.lib.mi.us%2fellis-video-tours&c=E,1,yCPWe7qHoZcl81QcQHSSbggL5ppJFdY1YIjhjXe-crFxTXcRZF4-uadrX_CmTP7rWkA0X0M4pYWg18COB28S3y7M5ZH3MVWrbrI3mOuUZw,,&typo=1> It was a few years ago... could be 7-8 or more years the way time flies! I recall going to the grand opening and meeting the designer...and wishing we could hire her.
