This massive public library takes up a city block. Even with all that space, since the early 1990s, Spacesaver's compact shelving has been critical for maximizing space and accommodating the library's collections.
The powered systems, like the thermostats and other electronic systems in the aging building, began to fail decades after the library opened. Because Spacesaver could no longer obtain the parts required for repair, the electronic components had to be replaced.
The library's administrative team decided to reinvest in the Spacesaver system after weighing their options. They determined that compact shelving was critical to the library's function, and that updating it would improve the working environment while also extending the asset's useful life.

The system's aging electronic controls, engines, and safety systems were all renewed by the local Spacesaver distributorship, which also updated the system's appearance. The technicians replaced the old grey end panels with new maple-look laminate panels, which brighten the space and give it a more contemporary look. They also replaced the old fluorescent lighting with new LED lighting, which is brighter and more efficient.
The library is now set up for decades of trouble-free Spacesaver system operation.
