Testimonials
We value our relationships and strive to create lifelong partnerships with our library and school customers.
As is always the case, LFI knows their products and customers and came through again. Thank you for your patience with my scheduling in getting your crew in and I enjoyed working with them. They worked so hard and perhaps stayed later than expected to finish up the job in one day, which I really appreciated.

I just wanted to let you know that John and your installer were very patient and accommodating this morning as they rearranged the already built shelves for the library. John even came back after the director wanted a few tweaks done before the collection is moved over. Lynn was extremely happy that LFI could come out in such short notice to move items around after the fact and very much appreciated John’s willingness to help. He also eased her mind for the upcoming work that is going to happen next week.

I just wanted to thank you for such great customer service with installing our shelving and tables, returning so quickly to correct an error, and jockeying the shelves around to satisfy our staff! I appreciate your willingness to go above and beyond to make our space look great.
-Charles Teval / Assistant Director at Hedberg Public Library
Hi Melissa, Wanted to reach out and thank you so much for the fantastic fabric selection you made for me with the 2 Buzzi panels. They absolutely rock! Everyone loves the color, and it goes so well with the blue carpet in that room. Really appreciate your creative eye!
-Andy Smith / Assistant Director at Michigan City Public Library
The Media Center is now the nicest area in the School. Restating the obvious - I'm very pleased with the products LFI supplied us. Thanks to you and your staff for all the advice and assistance on getting us to this great finished product.”

"I wanted to thank your team for making the move a smooth and seamless process. Even though it was probably one of the coldest days of the year, your team worked very hard, and our move was right on schedule. On behalf of the Scott County Library Systems and our Board of Trustees, thank you for everything! We greatly appreciate the work you do for libraries!"
-Tricia Kane / Director, Scott County Library System
"We just received our circulation numbers for June. All collections in youth services have seen increases over last June. Adult collections are rebounding. But the biggest success story is the picture books – use of this collection increased a whopping 63%! Circulation of board books increased 18%. Neither of these stats includes how much “in house” use these collections are getting.
-Sandy Whitmer/ Director, Warrenville Public Library District
"The team moved the entire collection shifting things for the carpet layers as they moved through the building. The crew worked extremely hard and were more than happy to help us as we tried to accomplish library work during the two weeks. We had a lot of fun with them in what could have been a very stressful situation."
-Kelly Fischbach / Director, Carroll Public Library

"On behalf of everyone at IC, I wanted to say thank you for all the help you and the team provide us for our new library. With the kids back in school this week, we had the official blessing and opening today. Its so nice that we aren't even calling it a library anymore. Its the new IC Learning Resource Center. The students and staff love it. Thanks again for your guidance through the process."
- Amy Fahey / Immaculate Conception Board Member
".....your guys Jerry, Brad, Brian, Jason, and all of the others. They were just amazing. The combination of hard working, kind, helpful, funny and humble is hard to find and you managed to put together a team with all of those qualities. They were hard at work two hours before we were even there and didn’t leave until we did at night. Thank you again!"
-Serena Gunik / Library Director, Plum Creek Library Systems
"Your team did such a fantastic job! I am really feeling thankful that we were pointed in your direction for help. There was never downtime – they just kept at it. I really appreciate all their hard work and expertise. We have received so many compliments from library patrons about how beautiful things look."
-Sarah Meyer-Reyerson / Library Director at Waverly, IA Public Library
"LFI’s creative team helped us take our ideas through every step to implementation. They are phenomenal listeners and really understand the bigger picture of libraries and their communities. LFI provided high-end service through every stage of our project, right down to the finishing details and installation. The library board, the staff and I were very impressed with everything that LFI produced: high-end without a high price. We are continuing to work with LFI on other design projects in our Library."
- Barbara Osuch / Library Director, Park Forest Public Library
"The new shelving transformed the way that students and teachers looked for books - series that were never checked out were flying off the shelf, students were able to find books independently, and the visual appeal of the shelving garnered so much attention and positive feedback from the school community! We are looking forward to adding more shelving like this to other parts of our library!"
