Need new furniture?

Join us on 8/17 for our

Library Furniture Expo!

 

 

How's the furniture in your library?

 

Are there pieces that need to be replaced?

Do you have a new or updated space that needs furnishing?

 

·       Maybe you're doing a smaller project. You need a few new chairs. Or some soft seating. Or some privacy pods. Or you want to make your outdoor space more functional with some all-weather furniture.

·       Maybe you're doing a major renovation and you're refurnishing a whole department - or even your entire library.

·       Whatever you're doing, CLC can help!

 

With the launch of our new furniture contracts, we've significantly expanded the furniture manufacturers available on a CLC discount contract, AND made purchasing easier than ever. How is this possible? Come to our first-ever in-person furniture expo and find out!
