Conifer Library Opportunity

Conifer Library is getting a new home!

In July 2024 the JCPL Board of Trustees approved a 10-year lease at 27122 Main Street in Conifer to be the new Conifer Library home. Since 1996, the library has been housed within the Conifer High School. Through extensive community engagement efforts in 2022 and 2023, it was learned that the demand for library services exceed what the current offering could provide.

The new home of the Conifer Library is expected to be complete in September 2025.

Project Updates

Construction is well underway with walls formed and drywall installed! The schedule is still on track, and we anticipate the opening of the new library in September 2025.

The Intergovernmental Agreement to partner with the Conifer High School was dissolved this summer and the Conifer High School Library will open this fall for the exclusive use of its students.
