Drawing on the authors' experience gained from library projects around the world, this book charts a readable path through everything from the planning of a new library, to major refurbishment, or the remodelling of a current library. It clearly explains the library design language and processes needed by professionals overseeing any project, and covers essential aspects including ensuring cost-effectiveness, eco-efficiencies, improved service and community impact meet the organisation's objectives. Fully revised and updated, this new edition includes coverage of the need for flexible and adaptable library spaces; the environmental impact of building design, construction and use; the trend towards multi-use, multi-purpose buildings to serve community, cultural and educational needs; a customer-centred approach to service delivery; heightened focus on health and wellbeing for all stakeholders; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and customer access needs on the design and layout of a library; the rapid growth of digital services. International and cross-sectoral in scope, this book is an essential guide for library professionals or architects involved in library building, remodelling or development. It will also be a valuable reference for students of both library and architectural design.
