The FG Library team provided us with expert advice and excellent service and a professional approach to every aspect of the project from enquiry to installation. The quality of the finished project is a testament to the entire FG Library team. Thank you!”

“The shelving at Canada Water Library is a key feature of the building and it was essential that its design enhanced the unique interior and delivered a robust and flexible solution to house and display a completely new collection of stock. The shelving layout leads the public around the library floor and leads to comfortable seating areas where people can read and study. The kinder boat has been a very successful feature and the children love it.”
