Whether you build a new library or transform an existing one, do not build the best library of the previous era. Create an environment that facilitates new patterns of interaction, learning, and accessing information.  Administrators, trustees, board members, librarians, community residents, faculty, students and architects must collaborate to arrive at the design that best responds to the community that the library serves.  The presentation is based on Peter Gisolfi’s recently released book, Collaborative Library Design: From Planning to Impact, published by the American Library Association (ALA).

 Brief Biography: Peter Gisolfi

Peter Gisolfi is the author of more than 100 articles on design issues in architecture and landscape architecture.
