At r5 Professional Consulting, LLC, we have a specialty focus area for our communities’ public libraries. We assist clients in developing strategies to help them create an operational plan that best serves the community as well as library staff.

When assisting clients during the Planning, Design & Construction phases of a project, we focus on guiding the process to yield the best results for library leaders from re-purposing of existing space, to renovations and major additions to new ground-up facilities anywhere in the United States.
