Manlius Public Library’s mission is to serve as a community center providing free and equal access to cultural, intellectual and informational resources for community members of all ages.

In order for the Manlius Library to fulfill its mission, the library needed to be renovated and expanded to meet the demands of a growing population. VIP’s design-build team redesign and renovated the existing 7,000 SF and added a new 13,000 SF addition, which included a new visible entranceway, café, and enhanced adult reading room, community all‐purpose rooms children’s library and reading room.

The project was completed several weeks ahead of schedule and $70,000 under budget.
