Designing Library Space for Children

Ingrid Bon, Andrew Cranfield, and Karen Latimer (Eds.) — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 11:43:36 +0100

In recent years the library community has seen a renewed interest in library architecture and design. This is due to the change of focus from content and collection development to how libraries engage with their users in a digital age. This means that librarians, architects, politicians and patrons must develop new visions, concepts and ideas for the design and building of libraries.
