Featured Library Construction Bond (LCBA) Projects

Published on March 9, 2025

Reaping the Rewards of Construction

We love shining the spotlight on NJ’s $125 million investment in public libraries! If your library received a Round 1 or Round 2 Library Construction Bond Act grant and have completed your project, drop us a line at NJSL Office of Communications and Marketing and we’ll let you know what we need in order to feature your library here.

No project is too small – a new HVAC system is just as important as a new building.
