[ISLMA-Share] New library spaces

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

flexible space
modular furniture
adequate electrical and wi-fi and/or ethernet service and outlets
shelving that matches/complements your new stuff
measure what you think you'll need, and add 25% for book, media supply and
personal (purse, coat, etc.) storage
display space (trophies and/or student work)
book display space
also, think about color schemes and artwork. Is this to be a tranquil space
or an active one?
