Rooms that Rock: Practical Tips for Library Space Planning
Session Description: You don’t need a new building to make your library more inviting to the community. In this interactive workshop, discover ways to improve and stretch space without increasing floor area. From flexible layouts to movable furniture and modified collections, learn practical space planning ideas for libraries of any size and shape. This was presented as an interactive, half-day workshop, engaging participants in a series of hands-on exercises. Registrants were invited to bring current library photos and floor plans.
