Let’s Get Physical
June 11th, 2007 | Permalink | Comment?

Does your library’s physical environment reflect the needs and wants of your community? Is it making a good impression? If you can’t say yes to both questions, maybe you need an SPA – Sensory Perception Audit.

Julia Cooper, a consultant to bookstores and libraries and a librarian herself, offers a terrific guide to evaluating your library inside and out. Her article can be copied and taken with you as you tour your building. This is the best, short tip sheet for discovering and improving your library’s style that I’ve come across. For all you frustrated designers, enjoy!
