From the meeting
Live Oak Public Library presented the concept design for the replacement Oglethorpe Library and said construction documents were underway. The team planned to get the project out to bid before the end of 2026, with a grand opening projected for mid-2028. The design includes mass timber, solar, courtyards, and community rooms, and the board discussed town halls and feedback.
This is a live planning signal ahead of bid release.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
When will Chatham County issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Chatham County's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Chatham County before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
Where can I find more library government opportunities in Georgia?
Civic IQ monitors board meetings, agendas, budgets, and capital plans from 100,000+ state and local agencies and surfaces library pre-RFPs in Georgia as soon as they appear — months before they reach bid portals.
