"Our recent workshops confirmed our belief that the physical library – the library as place - will continue to be increasingly important.  The interior of the library must support new activities including group study, project based work and information research. In other words, how are the changes from print collections to digital collaboration, from print preservation to digital, reflected in the design of the library space?"

Whatever the challenge chances are someone somewhere has worked on something similar at their library.  Whether it is space planning innovations or a new building projects, we regularly provide in-house workshops. Contact Us
