Hello everyone,
We are in the very early stages of planning our new Education Centre
Library here at Dryburn which is hopefully going to be built in a
separate building to the new hospital in a couple of years time.
I have now been given details of the size of the area which has been
apportioned for the Library and I have to agree to it or argue the
case for more space!!
Although I have never been involved in the design of a new
Library before I assume that some of you have already done this. I
would be very grateful for the benefit of your
experience and any ideas (or warnings!) and thoughts you may have
which would help me - particularly to do with how much space should
be allocated to things like periodicals, storage, loan collections,
IT etc.
All help will be very gratefully received!!
Regards,
Shirley Blackett
