MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE:
"We have been able to publish this new documentation of recent library buildings just in time for the 14th Seminar of the LIBER Architecture Group. It takes place in Budapest and Debrecen (Hungary) from the 8th to the 12th of April 2008. I am glad to continue the tradition of publishing these volumes which was started by Professor Elmar Mittler (State and University Library Göttingen). As the European community is developing a stronger sense of identity, more and more international libraries want to be included in our publication. Most projects are concerned with scientific university libraries, but the readers will also find an archive as well as examples of public libraries in Amsterdam and Antwerp. Libraries today are not just a place to house information resources (and multimedia) but are also places for learning and communication. These functions also affect the design of the space. Therefore you will also find examples of “Learning Resource Centers” which support students in their learning.
I know that the questionnaire that libraries have to fill in is very long, and I should like to take this opportunity to thank all the contributors for their work; I should also like to acknowledge the support of all the members of the LIBER Architecture Group Committee. All the material I received needed to be reduced for the printed version, but you will find a full digital version on the supplementary CD-ROM.
Studying architecture drawings and photographs is not only way to get to know new libraries. Of course, it is also important to visit buildings too. The seminars of the LIBER Architecture Group give us a chance to discuss new ideas for library buildings and forthcoming projects in a specific region or country. Everyone is welcome to participate and to enrich the European dimension of the discussion. Please send any suggestions for programmes and themes to our Chairman, Ulrich Niederer (ulrich.niederer@zhbluzern.ch). Inken Feldsien-Sudhaus (Hamburg University of Technology TUHH), Hamburg, February 2008."
