chairs, outlets, etc. in each room.

Display furniture.

A circulation desk with room for more than one person to work, a
dual-computer screen that both the patron and clerk can see without craning
around. Plenty of drawers of various sizes. The desk should also have
levels so that both kindergarteners and 8th graders can use it comfortably.

An office work area with cabinets and shelves for processing supplies and a
place to prepare books for the shelves, make book repairs, etc.

A separate room with windows onto the library for classes to meet in.
Fully equipped with audio/video, SmartBoard, etc.

Enough budget to purchase LOADS of books AND have them fully processed and
shelf-ready.
