Subject: Re: [ISLMA-Share] New library spaces

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?

Make sure the storage is various sizes. I have a new library and have cabinets and shelving storage but need a place for larger things (a vacuum, book carts, my coat etc). Also, be very specific about the placement of the book return...😏

Hi,
We will have 2 new K-5 library centers in the next few years as they are revamping our 50 years old spaces… I am meeting with the architects next week. What are some things that I should request in regards to the space itself?

·        Storage Closet

·        Sink

·        Electrical Outlets

·        Windows
Thanks!
