Description

The public library director needs information that helps in understanding what is involved in planning for a public library building project.

This applies whether the subject is a free standing independent building, a branch library, a joint-use facility with a museum, a senior academic library, a community or junior college library, or a school library.

Reading this book will not turn a reader into a qualified specialist on library buildings, but it will help librarians and others learn what should be known about a project so that they may function effectively as part of the planning team. The concept of modern libraries is moving toward interactive connections with information sources far beyond the immediate community.

For the contemporary public library, this means connection to a network, with several terminals constantly online to the Internet.

New library buildings must be constructed with these and other needs in mind.
