Congratulations to Frisco Public Library! We're sure Rexy is delighted with the new habitat. Also, kudos to the community for a tremendous pre-move checkout effort. Currently, 48.5% of the collection is WITH PATRONS—not in moving boxes. Way to go, Frisco!
The Frisco Public Library may be temporarily closed, but staff is busy getting its new home ready to open in February. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who checked out books and other materials to help with the move. Learn more in this week’s and continue to access limited services at FriscoLibrary.com.
At the new 155,000-square-foot location on Dallas Parkway, activity is buzzing as books are shelved and as final work on the building itself continues. Rexy, the library’s dinosaur, oversees the activity from her perch at the center stairs. Get the scoop on the new Frisco Public Library location, and the process of moving THOUSANDS of items, here:

Libraries, museums, and performance venues connect us, making our communities healthier, stronger, and more prosperous. At GL Seaman & Company, we’re honored to have helped the civic leaders of Frisco, Texas, ensure that their citizens enjoy access to enriching cultural experiences.
With Frisco’s record-setting population growth has come the need for several new municipal buildings. Over the years, we’ve provided design solutions, furnishings, fixtures, and installation services for the Frisco Public Library and several other city facilities.
Our teams continue to maintain these facilities according to the city’s requirements. We’ve been able to meet these exacting standards thanks to the close relationships we’ve formed with manufacturers such as Knoll Inc. and OFS.
Happy National Arts & Humanities Month! We hope you have plenty of opportunities to express yourself creatively — or show appreciation for your neighbors who do — this October.
