Oswego Public Library District (Campus Library)

Library Renovations

The Oswego Public Library District, in an effort to compensate for the explosive growth of its constituencies in Kendall, Kane and Will counties launched a capital improvement campaign to gain voter approval of a building referendum to construct a second library and to perform renovations to its existing facility. The library district retained the services of Frederick Quinn Corporation (FQC) to provide At-Risk Construction management services. FQC was hired prior to solicitation of the building referendum to provide cost estimating, logistical and referendum support throughout the entire capital improvement process. FQC and the project architect worked together to develop scenarios that allowed the library board to be well positioned for a successful referendum outcome.
