Synopsis

Fast-changing technology has turned academic libraries into gateways - to electronic resources both within and beyond library walls. This volume features photographs, bibliographies, and practical, hands-on tools that will guide the reader through the process of planning and building an academic library space for the future. It covers how to create or renovate spaces that: incorporate innovations in academic library facility design; are flexible for changing information technology needs; and balance design, comfort, and physical space demands. The authors have not only gone through the process themselves but have also studied libraries around the country in order to determine the best ways to provide and streamline access to information.
