Expansion and Renovation to the existing Chinook Arch Regional Library building.  Project will be occupied during construction and will therefore be broken into 3 phases to complete.   Project includes demo and relocation of existing offices. New boardroom and staff room/kitchen area. New cataloging area, training room, acquisition, IT, system support, and staging areas to name a few. The scope of work includes all trades from mechanical, electrical, to drywallers, painters, carpenters, and everything in between. The boardroom was dedicated to Donna Dietrich and the reading lane equipped with little tables and chairs for reading was dedicated to Bernadette Folan. Both very valued employees to Chinook Arch Regional Library who have passed on. On April 2, 1992 The Honorable Doug Main formally established the Chinook Arch Library Board with Donna as its first chair.

“The staff and board of the Chinook Arch Regional Library System were very pleased to work with Ward Bros. Construction on the renovation of our 17,000 sq. ft. headquarters facility, located in north Lethbridge. Ward Bros. staff, trades, and contractors were all very courteous, accommodating, flexible, and committed to a high level of workmanship. Although it’s never fun to work in a construction zone, Ward Bros. bent over backwards to minimize the impact on our operations. The Ward Bros. team worked very well with the prime consultant, resulting in the smooth and very satisfactory completion of our project.”
