New Oakley Library and Community Center

Welcome! We are excited to share information about the status of Oakley’s new Library and Community Center project!

The City is committed to this project, and is working to raise the funding needed to make this vision for our community a reality.



The Friends of the Oakley Library is working closely with the City to bring awareness to the project.  We are requesting donations, both large and small, from federal, state, and local government sources, local businesses, and residents.

Your generous support will help outfit our new city Library with the best furnishings and technology.  Visit our New Library and Community Center donation page to make a contribution.

For complete details and the latest updates, visit the City’s Oakley Library and Community Center website or view the updated one-page project description.



Friends of the Oakley Library Receive $400,000 Grant from the Dean & Margaret Lesher Foundation for the new Oakley Library and Community Center
 
The Friends of the Oakley Library is excited to announce that the Dean & Margaret Lesher Foundation has awarded the group $400,000. The money will be paid out over two years, with $200,000 given in both 2025 and 2026. Money from this grant will go directly towards the construction of the new Oakley Library and Community Center. The Friends’ fundraising goal was to raise one million dollars for the project, and they now have commitments for $980,000, all raised within ten months.
 
“The Lesher Foundation’s generous gift will help Contra Costa County’s efforts to build libraries and other services that meet the needs of East County’s growing population”, according to Contra Costa District 3 Supervisor Diane Burgis. “It takes the entire community to do big things, and the Lesher Foundation’s help will go a long way toward creating the new library and community center that Oakley and East County residents deserve.”
 
Oakley Mayor and Library Ad hoc Committee member Shannon Shaw shares that “the City is thrilled to hear about the generous donation from the Dean & Margaret Lesher Foundation. These funds will absolutely help us build a new library and community center that can meet the needs of our residents. We give many thanks to the Friends of the Oakley Library, who have worked so incredibly hard the past year to bring funds and attention to this critical project.
