Welcome to the Conifer High School Library!

The Conifer High School Library is unique because it is part of the Jeffco Public Library branch in Conifer. That means from 7:15 a.m.-3:00 p.m. it is used by Conifer High School students and from 3:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m. it is used by all patrons in our mountain community.
