Another project that made a profound and fundamental impact on Kolakowski and all of KBE was Alex's Library. Mike shared that "this project was no doubt the smallest project we've ever built; at just 90 square feet, the library is a little larger than a small offce. We converted the space, with the help of many others, to a parents' resource library and quiet study." The library is located off of the main entrance to the Connecticut Children's Medical Center Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at UCONN Health Center in Farmington, CT. The idea to turn a storage room into a peaceful library and retreat was conceived by The Baby Alex Foundation, an organization focused on pediatric brain surgery research, and its Alex's Library initiative. The initiative's mission is to provide books and other informational materials to families of NICU patients striving to fnd solace during diffcult times. The organization was started by parents Nicole Schmidt and Erik Skulte after the premature birth of their son, Alex, now 8. Alex's parents and his sister Isabelle were on hand to cut the ribbon for the library opening. "Each opportunity we receive to help those in need means a great deal to me and my employees," expressed Kolakowski.
