throughout India, thus becoming the 'standard scepter' of the merchant. After several
changes and scrutiny in the system of governance and the judiciary, in 1829 Lord William
Bentinck, the Governor of Bengal, created a division in a few districts. A commissioner is
appointed to govern the affairs of each department. In 1829, no police station existed in

3.6 Designcriteria for libraries – a generic list
The architect’s of severalnew libraries in the UK,Harry Faulkner-Brown, listed 10 design
criteria for successfullibraries (Faulkner-Brown, 1987).
These were that libraries should be:
1) flexible
2) compact
3) accessible
4) extendible
5) varied
6) organized
7) comfortable
8) constant internal environment
9) secure
10) economic. To this list one may add.
11) sustainable
12) uplifting to the spirit.
3.7 Personal and working space in the library:
Whereas the nature of the space needs to reflect the organization and character of the
collection, space in the library is also a personal matter. Library space for the reader consists
of:
1) table space
2) book-stack access space
3) circulation space plus also:
4) ambience and reflective space.
3.8 Type of theft
Four types of theft commonly occur at libraries and different strategies are needed to
overcome each. Generally speaking there is:
1) theft of books and journals
2) theft from books and journals
3) theft of equipment
4) theft from the person.
Although theft is a major problem at some libraries, the greatest threat is fire and attendant
water damage. Some 80% of fires in libraries in the USA are caused by arson and these
account for more loss of material overall than theft. For example, the fire started deliberately
at Los Angeles Central Library in 1986 resulted in the destruction of half a million volumes
and water damage to the same number again (SCONUL,1996, p. 38). Since libraries are
public buildings and consequently attract disgruntled individuals, the threat of arson needs to
be considered at the design stage.
3.9 Special storage needs
The vast majority of storage for printed material can be met by standard shelving. Under
10% of an average library collection has exceptional dimensions and normally as little as 2–
3% of books, etc. demand special storage attention. Typically, tailored shelving is required
for:
1) atlases and maps
2) dictionaries and encyclopedias
3) journals and periodicals
4) newspapers
5) art folios
6) manuscripts.
Maps, aerial photographs and plans are normally stored in large acid-free folders or boxes.
These are placed on racks or in drawer cases specially designed for the purpose. Such
drawers are normally fairly flat (25–50 mm deep), but each can house up to 100 maps or
plans if neatly stored. With storage of such material, it is important to consider ease of
access. Drawers can be heavy to remove from a rack and maps difficult to consult without
pulling out the whole shelf. Large racks full of maps or plans can also bea considerable
weight for the building structure to bear.
3.10 Environmental considerations:
1) Restrict plan depth to 15 m for maximum daylight penetration
2) Create internal atria in large depth libraries
3) Provide solar shading and internal blinds on large south facing
glazing areas
4) Use externallight shelves to increase daylight penetration
5) Place reader tables in well-lit areas
6) Avoid air-conditioning except in ‘hot spots’
7) Employ mixed-mode ventilation systems
8) Maximize natural ventilation in public areas
Lighting is important for comfort, safety, legibility and energy efficiency. Working areas
need to have good conditions for reading or screen use. Circulation areas need to be well-lit
with pools of light employed to guide users around the library. Lighting also needs to be
carefully considered in the energy strategy because, in large libraries, energy consumption as
a result of artificial lighting often exceeds that of heating. The most immediate benefit is
gained by exploiting natural light to its limits as opposed to employing artificial light.
However, there are both dimensional and technical constraints in doing this. As a general
rule, working areas should not be further than 7 m from a window – this results in a
maximum plan depth of 14 m or 15 m with a central corridor or open passageway. Where
libraries require deeper plans, the daylight should high)
3.11 Options for ventilation
There are three main options in terms of library ventilation:
1) natural ventilation
2) mechanical ventilation
3) full air-conditioning.
3.12 The main types of library furniture provided include:
1) shelving (open and closed)
2) mobile compact storage
3) counter systems
4) display shelving or boards
5) general library furniture
6) special furniture for children
7) furniture for IT equipment
8) map and plan chests
9) photographic storage
10) book trolleys
11) specialist concentration furniture or storage
12) security storage.
It is important that in their room layouts architects follow the dimensions commonly
adopted by shelving manufacturers. These vary but are all based upon repeating
modules in height, width and depth. Typical is the library shelving system
manufactured by British Thornton ESF Ltd where the shelves are available in 700
mm, 800 mm and 900 mm lengths, there is a consistent depth of 260 mm and
heights vary from 1200 mm to 2000 mm; using the same combination of elements,
bookshelves can be single or double-sided and starter or extension bays.
Dimensional co-ordination keeps costs down, makes erection and installation
relatively simple, and provides a visually unified library environment. The basic
shelving assembly is commonly available with integral lighting, a base and
stabilizing top unit, and is offered in a variety of colors or laminated finishes (ash,
oak, beech, etc.). Other shelving assemblies are available for items such as CDs or
cassettes and for special needs such as a children’ library or display. These
frequently integrate dimensionally and visually with the basic library shelving
assemblies. It is better to avoid competing systems in the same library except where
they can be accommodated in separate areas and where their use is justified because
of a specified need (plan or newspaper storage). Normally library shelving is fixed
and can only be moved by dismantling the assembly. Commonly, however, some
lengths of library shelving are mobile in order to provide flexibility of layout,
particularly around information points or near the library entrance. Here units of
shelves are placed on concealed castors, which have a locking device for safety
purposes. Study carrels are also available in standard lengths, widths and finishes.
As with shelving, they are manufactured to allow for single or double-sided
assembly, and many come with optional extra such as shelves, cable access and a
position for a computer or study lamp. Most are 800–900 mm wide, 1300 mm high
and 750–800 mm deep, creating a double sided carrel unit 1600 mm across. Where
computers are integrated, the width extends to 1000 mm and the depth should be at
least 800 mm to provide space for the keyboard.
3.13 Shelving and space Book needs
Library collections have a habit of growing faster than anticipated. Growth is by no
means regular or even; it is often erratic and sometimes exponential. Library space consists
principally of three components:
1) stack space for books
2) reader space
3) staff space.
All three need to be planned effectively with checks and balances to avoid staff
accommodation growing at the expense of book shelving areas or reader seats. Normally, the
size of the collection grows faster than the needs of staff space or reader space. Expansion in
the library stock is generally the critical factor in accommodating growth. As mentioned
earlier, growth in stock is often met by. out housing rarely used material in a book
warehouse at some distance from the library (e.g. the National Library of
Scotland). Commonly, however, the shelves themselves are extended to meet the storage of
the additional books either by cramming (e.g. the National Library, Cape Town, South
Africa) or by the construction of new accommodation. To plan effectively, it is important to
understand the space needs of books, journals and IT. Most libraries have a policy of open-
shelf storage for the bulk of the collection. Shelf length and density of occupation by
bookshelves and of books themselves on shelves is critical. Normally, a library plans to have
80–90% of its total stock on open shelves. The collection not on shelves is either on loan, in
use elsewhere in the building, or held in the reference rooms. For calculation purposes, it is
normally assumed that six volumes occupy a linear foot of shelves or 20 volumes per meter.
If the bookshelves are arranged vertically spaced at between 200–300 m (8–12 inches), this
means that about 80 books can be stored in every 1 m2 of open shelving. If the shelving bays
are 2 m high, this allows for around 150–160 books per linear meter of shelving. Hence,
with a collection of 300,000 volumes, a typical library would require 2000 m of shelving.
But the collection is often not that simple. A typical volume varies according to whether it is
a book, atlas, bound journal, thesis or videotape. Books also vary in size according to
discipline (art books are typically larger than social science books), to the time when printed
(nineteenth century books tend to be larger than twentieth century ones) and the country of
origin. It is thus important to decide upon typical volume sizes for the nature of the
collection and also the likely rate of borrowing. Poor planning is evidenced by too many
books competing for shelf space, and by additional shelves being constructed in circulation
areas, across windows or directly beneath light fittings. The use of a space data record
recommended by Wells and Young (Wells and Young, 1997) provides a formula for
calculating the space required for specific types of libraries. As a rule of thumb one can
assume that with small, mainly paperback books that 200 volumes can be accommodated per
square meter of shelving (6–8 shelves high), typical hardbacks around 150, and large
reference material about 100. Allowing for room between the shelves for disabled access,
this results typically in around 120–150 volumes per m2 of library space (excluding staff
areas and general circulation space). Thus a library with a collection of 300,000 volumes
would require at least 2000 m2 of floor area for the open-shelf book collection. Formulas for
capacity are, however, dangerous and although general guides are useful at the initial
planning or costing stage,none is entirely satisfactory (Metcalf, 1986, p. 154).
3.14 Library Design Standard
Three diagrams have been prepared as an aid to visualizing the functional relationships of
the principal areas in typical small libraries . These diagrams are for libraries for towns of
5,000, 10,000 and 25,000 persons respectively . They are meant to clarify relationships and
circulation patterns . They definitely are not building plans, nor do they constitute the only
possible relationships between the program elements .
A . The Library for the Town of5,000 Population
The basic principles when planning for the library:
1) Location to insure maximum accessibility
2) Simplicity of design concept
3) Ease of supervision by library staff
4) Provision for future expansion
The basic statistics ofthe library are :
Staff : One and one-half persons, including a professional librarian and a part-time assistant.
These are approximates only and will, of course,vary with each community.

the program .
The basic requirements for this library are:
Staff : Three persons : a professional librarian, an assistant, and part-time clerical and page
help equivalent to one full-time person.
CI. The Library for the Town of 25,000 Population:
This library in function is more complex than the previous libraries . To the three basic
functional areas of the library, which are expanded and elaborated on, there usually is added
a fourth, a community function, often in the form of a meeting room or small auditorium .
1. There may also be Special exhibition space,
2. Study area with carrels near the stacks
3. Small meeting rooms
4. Audiovisual rooms or booths The circulation

Vto cover the interests of the whole population :
1. Libraries serving populations from 5,000 to 50,000 require a min. of 2 books per capita .
2. Communities up to 5,000 persons need access to a minimum of 10,000 volumes, or 3
books per capita, whichever is greater.
3. The library building should provide space for the full range of library services .
4. All libraries should have designated areas for children's,young adult, and adult materials.
Multipurpose rooms should be provided for meeting, viewing, and listening by cultural,
educational, and civic groups unless such facilities are readily available elsewhere in the
community. They should be located for easy supervision so that they may be used for quiet
reading and study when not needed by groups .
5. No single type of building is satisfactory for all public libraries. Each building is likely to
be different, and its differences should be directly related to its service program. The library
building should be located in or.
Space Requirements:
space for
1. books,
2. readers,.
3 staff,
4. group meetings, and
5. mechanical operations and all other
(stairways,elevators, tbilets, etc)
Space for Books
To a large extent the amount of book shelving required will depend on the size
of the library service area and whether the library is a memberof a library system. Most
library planners, when estimating the size of the book collection, apply a standard which
ranges from three books per capita (smallest communities) to one and one-half books per
capita (largest cities) . In any event enough book shelving should be provided to plan for 20
years' anticipated growth .
Despite the fact that there is considerable variation in the size of books, there are
several reliable formulas which may be used to estimate the amount of space required for
books . These are : reading rooms, 50 books per foot of standard height wall shelving, or 100
books per footof double-faced shelving ; bookstack areas, 15 books per square foot (includes
aisles), or 2 books per cubic foot . Approximately 50 longplay phonograph records may be
shelved in one lineal foot of wall shelving .
Space for Readers
Reader seating requirements should be determined for at least 20 years ahead . Minimum
allowances are made of 30 sq ft per adultreader and 20 sq ft per child . These allocations for
reader seating are in terms of net space for readers, chairs, tables, aisles, and service desk .
Seating requirements should be listed according to the severalareas of the building .
Space for Staff
Space requirements for the staff must also be stated in the program . These estimates
will be conditioned by:
1. anticipated growth for a 20-year period and
2. the nature and extent of the library's service program .
Space for staff be calculated on the basis of "one staff member (full-time or equivalent) . . .
for each 2,500 people in the service area ."' It is a minimum standard that includes pages but
not maintenance personnel . Staff space requirements should be calculated on the basis of
100 sq ft per staff member. It is important that this standard be met for there is ample
evidence that space for staff has been outgrown more rapidly than any other type of space in
most library buildings .service program will require the support of an enlarged staff .The
unit of measurement of 100 sft per staff member includes space for desk, chair, books, and
equipment .A checklist of staff work areas should include(1) administrative offices, (2) work
rooms, and (3) staff lunch and lounge rooms .
Space for Mechanical Operation
Included within this category are halls, stairways, toilets, elevators and lifts, air ducts,
heating and air conditioning equipment, closets, and shops . Because it is exceedingly easy
to underestimate the amount of space required for mechanical operations, it is recommended
that the best available technical advice be secured to
assure inclusion of an accurate estimate within the program statement . Fortunately, with the
development of new construction materials and techniques combined with new concepts in
planning, much less space is needed for these.
In addition to locating a maximum number ofpublic services on the main floor,
the followingpoints should be kept in mind :
1 . Only one complete card catalog should be maintained . It should be located
conveniently as near as possible to the reading and reference areas, circulation desk, and the
processing department.Department catalogs, a children's catalog, and shelflist and other
processing records should be placed in their respective areas needed .
2 . Except for large libraries, there should not be more than one circulation desk . It
should be near the main entrance where there will be direct visual control of the movement
of both children and adults .
3 . There should be a single public entrance within short distanceof the circulation desk
. Auditoriums and meeting rooms need not be directly accessible from the main entrance .
4 . Public toilets, telephones, and display cases should be located where they can be
supervised by circulation desk personnel . Cultural LIBRARIES Service and Space
Relationships Cultural Library Location
5. Every public service area should be supported by book storage, office, and work areas.
Reading rooms should be grouped so that they may be served by common book storage,
office, and work area .
6. A librarian or attendant should not be responsible for areas more than 55 ft beyond
his desk .
7 . Load bearing walls should be kept to a minimum and maximum use of shelving and
furniture made to separate different service areas .
Other factors, such as exterior light and noise, also may influence the location of various
areas within the building .Finally it may be said that the success or failure of a building is
measured by the degree to which planners succeed in applying the foregoing principles of
desirable interrelationships Whether it is a simple village library or a complex large-city
library, every effort should be made to facilitate supervisory control, flexibility, and
convenience of readers .
The Site
In addition to central location, several other important criteria should be
considered in library site selection :
1 . The site should be prominent . A corner site at a busy intersection where the library
can easily be seen is preferred . Maximum use should be made of display windows and
views of the interior .
2. The site should permit street level entrance Although a site that slopes to the rear
has certain advantages,a level site should be acquired if possible .
3. The site should be large enough for expansion, accessibility for service vehicles and
bookmobiles, and a modest amount of landscaping
.
4 . The site should permit orientation of the front of the building to the north in order
to minimize glare from the sun . When this is not
possible, orientation to the east is the second choice. However, an otherwise excellent,
centrally located site should not be eliminated for lack of appropriate orientation . Modern
year around temperature control devices and artificial light can be used effectively to
minimize sun exposure problems .
5 . Rectangular service areas within a building lend themselves to easy supervision .
As a result, a site which is rectangular in shape and permits construction of a rectangular
building should be obtained if possible .
6 . Ideally, a site should have uniform foundation conditions, either rock or soil . Test
borings should be made, preferably before a site is purchased . Certain other conditions
should be met if the community is to be adequately served . First, the library should be
located reasonably near adequate automobile parking . Second, parking provisions should be
made for bookmobiles, other official library vehicles, and library staff
members .
Third, automobile access to drive-in service windows should be provided where this
feature has been incorporated into the library building design . Although emphasis has been
placed on acquiring a site which would be large enough to permit easy horizontal expansion,
it is importantto note that under certain conditions purchase of a strategically located smaller
site can be justified provided there is enough space to locate primary adult public service
areas at street level .

As on March 2007, the Library has 119,750 books in collection, including old and rare
books with historical value, along with a small valuable collection of 40 to 50 manuscripts
titles for research and reference services. Books in the collection are mostly in Bengali and
English, as well as other languages including Urdu, Hindi, Arabic and Persian. As a
depository library, it deposits all Bangladeshi publications under the Copyright. The Library
receives most of the Bangladeshi daily newspapers and periodicals. It also has a special
collection of juvenile material and is providing separate reading facilities for children. The
Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) system with minor modifications is used to organize
library materials. As on March 2018, the Library has 2,17,850 ( Ref. Book Of Library ministry

5.11 Project Brief
Project Name : VIIPURI LIBRARY
Architects : Alver Aalto.
Location : Vyborg, Russia .
Area : 2500.0 m2
Project Year : 1935.
5.12 Project Background .
Despite being one of the seminal works of modern Scandinavian architecture, Alvar
Aalto’s Viipuri Library languished in relative obscurity for three-quarters of a century until
its media breakthrough in late 2014. The library's massing consists of two simple rectangular
blocks that are offset horizontally from one another, but the internal spatial organization is
deceptively more complex. What is often described as three floors in plan is actually in
section in a variegated array of volumetric conditions and a complex field of transitional
spaces. The programmatic arrangement bears some resemblance to the simpler massing,
with administrative and ceremonial spaces in the main entrance block and the bulk of the
reading spaces and bookshelves in the larger rear block. The intricacy of the plans, however,
reveals this diagram not to be so straightforward in practice.
The circulation of this complex interior arrangement captures the essence of Aalto’s
design. Analogizing to a rugged mountain topography defined primarily by changes in
elevation, he strove to create a stepped “interweaving of the section and ground plan” and “a
kind of unity of horizontal and vertical construction.

Chapter VI: DesignDevelopmentAnd Conceptualization ….094-124
Library is a sources of collection , resources ,and services. In the more traditional sense, a
library is a collection of books.
Users for public library:
• Children
• Young people
• Adults Public
Public library: have no scientific collection duty or archive function ,but are lending libraries
, which normally have small stores or none at all. Users for public library: • Children •
Young people • Adults Public library aim their range of stock and services at meeting the
needs of the users. The public library is communication for the population, they offer, in
addition to the traditional lending of books, browsing zones, citizens advice, information,
cafeteria, listening to music, areas for sitting and events, art lending. Structure the areas into
those for adults, children and young people with activity-oriented movement rooms, not
separated but in zones with flowing transition.
l.4 Proiect Rationale
The library will be important for informational, educational, cultural and social
institutes. This library is use centered organization focused on patron satisfaction. This
library not only have educational roles and function but also contribute to nation economics.
Use differnt idea provides one of the best mean to reach their goals. it will be a large archive
preserve historic artifacts, oral historic , digital history projects monograph relevant to the
community including minority groups.
1.5 Aim of Project
Public Libraries is a Library That is Accessible By The General Public and Is Generally
Funded From Public Sources, Such AS Taxes. Public libraries are very important social
organizations in building knowledge based society. Khulna Divisional Public Library will
be a Building a science-enlightened society for the citizens of Khulna and It will be a large

Social connecting space to develop different Aspect . the purpose of this library is not only
be a knowledge hub, but also a place for social-interaction because this is a divisional library
and it will connect people from different districts. Social-interaction is already present there
but it needed to be enhanced throughout the year.. it will be an iconic civic hub not only
through the conventional ways but also in the ways which people have enlightened through
ages. this library will play a vibrant role in the development of our culture that promotes
reading, motivated readers and learners for life.

Khulna Divisional Public Library , a Government public library is one of the oldest and largest public libraries in the Khulna District. Founded in 1965, it has survived for 54 years. Earlier, the library had received Gov. proposal Demolition of old library building and construction of new library building with modern facilities. (Project for the construction of a 9-storey library building is in progress) This library inside in Khulna - jessore high way road . every day over 2-3 hundreds readers gather at this old library to read dailies, books and to collect available job information. Some school going students are also seen chatting with their friends. Some people come here only to pass some time. However, in the summer people come here just to relax because it feels so cold and comfortable inside the library."

  • 35. 3.5 Fundamental Category of Public Library: # Generally Supported by taxes. # Governed by a Board to serve the Public Interest. # Open To All Community Members. # Entirely Voluntary. # Provide Basic Service Without Charge. 3.6 Designcriteria for libraries – a generic list The architect’s of severalnew libraries in the UK,Harry Faulkner-Brown, listed 10 design criteria for successfullibraries (Faulkner-Brown, 1987). These were that libraries should be: 1) flexible 2) compact 3) accessible 4) extendible 5) varied 6) organized 7) comfortable 8) constant internal environment 9) secure 10) economic. To this list one may add. 11) sustainable 12) uplifting to the spirit. 3.7 Personal and working space in the library: Whereas the nature of the space needs to reflect the organization and character of the collection, space in the library is also a personal matter. Library space for the reader consists of: 1) table space 2) book-stack access space 3) circulation space plus also: 4) ambience and reflective space.
  • 36. 3.8 Type of theft Four types of theft commonly occur at libraries and different strategies are needed to overcome each. Generally speaking there is: 1) theft of books and journals 2) theft from books and journals 3) theft of equipment 4) theft from the person. Although theft is a major problem at some libraries, the greatest threat is fire and attendant water damage. Some 80% of fires in libraries in the USA are caused by arson and these account for more loss of material overall than theft. For example, the fire started deliberately at Los Angeles Central Library in 1986 resulted in the destruction of half a million volumes and water damage to the same number again (SCONUL,1996, p. 38). Since libraries are public buildings and consequently attract disgruntled individuals, the threat of arson needs to be considered at the design stage. 3.9 Special storage needs The vast majority of storage for printed material can be met by standard shelving. Under 10% of an average library collection has exceptional dimensions and normally as little as 2– 3% of books, etc. demand special storage attention. Typically, tailored shelving is required for: 1) atlases and maps 2) dictionaries and encyclopedias 3) journals and periodicals 4) newspapers 5) art folios 6) manuscripts. Maps, aerial photographs and plans are normally stored in large acid-free folders or boxes. These are placed on racks or in drawer cases specially designed for the purpose. Such drawers are normally fairly flat (25–50 mm deep), but each can house up to 100 maps or plans if neatly stored. With storage of such material, it is important to consider ease of access. Drawers can be heavy to remove from a rack and maps difficult to consult without pulling out the whole shelf. Large racks full of maps or plans can also bea considerable weight for the building structure to bear.
  • 37. 3.10 Environmental considerations: 1) Restrict plan depth to 15 m for maximum daylight penetration 2) Create internal atria in large depth libraries 3) Provide solar shading and internal blinds on large south facing glazing areas 4) Use externallight shelves to increase daylight penetration 5) Place reader tables in well-lit areas 6) Avoid air-conditioning except in ‘hot spots’ 7) Employ mixed-mode ventilation systems 8) Maximize natural ventilation in public areas Lighting is important for comfort, safety, legibility and energy efficiency. Working areas need to have good conditions for reading or screen use. Circulation areas need to be well-lit with pools of light employed to guide users around the library. Lighting also needs to be carefully considered in the energy strategy because, in large libraries, energy consumption as a result of artificial lighting often exceeds that of heating. The most immediate benefit is gained by exploiting natural light to its limits as opposed to employing artificial light. However, there are both dimensional and technical constraints in doing this. As a general rule, working areas should not be further than 7 m from a window – this results in a maximum plan depth of 14 m or 15 m with a central corridor or open passageway. Where libraries require deeper plans, the daylight should high) 3.11 Options for ventilation There are three main options in terms of library ventilation: 1) natural ventilation 2) mechanical ventilation 3) full air-conditioning.
  • 38. 3.12 The main types of library furniture provided include: 1) shelving (open and closed) 2) mobile compact storage 3) counter systems 4) display shelving or boards 5) general library furniture 6) special furniture for children 7) furniture for IT equipment 8) map and plan chests 9) photographic storage 10) book trolleys 11) specialist concentration furniture or storage 12) security storage. It is important that in their room layouts architects follow the dimensions commonly adopted by shelving manufacturers. These vary but are all based upon repeating modules in height, width and depth. Typical is the library shelving system manufactured by British Thornton ESF Ltd where the shelves are available in 700 mm, 800 mm and 900 mm lengths, there is a consistent depth of 260 mm and heights vary from 1200 mm to 2000 mm; using the same combination of elements, bookshelves can be single or double-sided and starter or extension bays. Dimensional co-ordination keeps costs down, makes erection and installation relatively simple, and provides a visually unified library environment. The basic shelving assembly is commonly available with integral lighting, a base and stabilizing top unit, and is offered in a variety of colors or laminated finishes (ash, oak, beech, etc.). Other shelving assemblies are available for items such as CDs or cassettes and for special needs such as a children’ library or display. These frequently integrate dimensionally and visually with the basic library shelving assemblies. It is better to avoid competing systems in the same library except where they can be accommodated in separate areas and where their use is justified because of a specified need (plan or newspaper storage). Normally library shelving is fixed and can only be moved by dismantling the assembly. Commonly, however, some lengths of library shelving are mobile in order to provide flexibility of layout, particularly around information points or near the library entrance. Here units of shelves are placed on concealed castors, which have a locking device for safety purposes. Study carrels are also available in standard lengths, widths and finishes. As with shelving, they are manufactured to allow for single or double-sided assembly, and many come with optional extra such as shelves, cable access and a position for a computer or study lamp. Most are 800–900 mm wide, 1300 mm high and 750–800 mm deep, creating a double sided carrel unit 1600 mm across. Where computers are integrated, the width extends to 1000 mm and the depth should be at least 800 mm to provide space for the keyboard.
  • 39. 3.13 Shelving and space Book needs Library collections have a habit of growing faster than anticipated. Growth is by no means regular or even; it is often erratic and sometimes exponential. Library space consists principally of three components: 1) stack space for books 2) reader space 3) staff space. All three need to be planned effectively with checks and balances to avoid staff accommodation growing at the expense of book shelving areas or reader seats. Normally, the size of the collection grows faster than the needs of staff space or reader space. Expansion in the library stock is generally the critical factor in accommodating growth. As mentioned earlier, growth in stock is often met by. out housing rarely used material in a book warehouse at some distance from the library (e.g. the National Library of Scotland). Commonly, however, the shelves themselves are extended to meet the storage of the additional books either by cramming (e.g. the National Library, Cape Town, South Africa) or by the construction of new accommodation. To plan effectively, it is important to understand the space needs of books, journals and IT. Most libraries have a policy of open- shelf storage for the bulk of the collection. Shelf length and density of occupation by bookshelves and of books themselves on shelves is critical. Normally, a library plans to have 80–90% of its total stock on open shelves. The collection not on shelves is either on loan, in use elsewhere in the building, or held in the reference rooms. For calculation purposes, it is normally assumed that six volumes occupy a linear foot of shelves or 20 volumes per meter. If the bookshelves are arranged vertically spaced at between 200–300 m (8–12 inches), this means that about 80 books can be stored in every 1 m2 of open shelving. If the shelving bays are 2 m high, this allows for around 150–160 books per linear meter of shelving. Hence, with a collection of 300,000 volumes, a typical library would require 2000 m of shelving. But the collection is often not that simple. A typical volume varies according to whether it is a book, atlas, bound journal, thesis or videotape. Books also vary in size according to discipline (art books are typically larger than social science books), to the time when printed (nineteenth century books tend to be larger than twentieth century ones) and the country of origin. It is thus important to decide upon typical volume sizes for the nature of the collection and also the likely rate of borrowing. Poor planning is evidenced by too many books competing for shelf space, and by additional shelves being constructed in circulation areas, across windows or directly beneath light fittings. The use of a space data record recommended by Wells and Young (Wells and Young, 1997) provides a formula for calculating the space required for specific types of libraries. As a rule of thumb one can assume that with small, mainly paperback books that 200 volumes can be accommodated per square meter of shelving (6–8 shelves high), typical hardbacks around 150, and large reference material about 100. Allowing for room between the shelves for disabled access, this results typically in around 120–150 volumes per m2 of library space (excluding staff areas and general circulation space). Thus a library with a collection of 300,000 volumes would require at least 2000 m2 of floor area for the open-shelf book collection. Formulas for capacity are, however, dangerous and although general guides are useful at the initial planning or costing stage,none is entirely satisfactory (Metcalf, 1986, p. 154).

These diagrams are for libraries for towns of 5,000, 10,000 and 25,000 persons respectively . They are meant to clarify relationships and circulation patterns .

A small meeting room may be a useful addition to the program . The basic requirements for this library are: Staff : Three persons : a professional librarian, an assistant, and part-time clerical and page help equivalent to one full-time person. CI. The Library for the Town of 25,000 Population: This library in function is more complex than the previous libraries . To the three basic functional areas of the library, which are expanded and elaborated on, there usually is added a fourth, a community function, often in the form of a meeting room or small auditorium . 1.

Libraries serving populations from 5,000 to 50,000 require a min. of 2 books per capita . 2. Communities up to 5,000 persons need access to a minimum of 10,000 volumes, or 3 books per capita, whichever is greater. 3. The library building should provide space for the full range of library services . 4. All libraries should have designated areas for children's,young adult, and adult materials. Multipurpose rooms should be provided for meeting, viewing, and listening by cultural, educational, and civic groups unless such facilities are readily available elsewhere in the community. They should be located for easy supervision so that they may be used for quiet reading and study when not needed by groups . 5. No single type of building is satisfactory for all public libraries. Each building is likely to be different, and its differences should be directly related to its service program. The library building should be located in or. Space Requirements: space for 1. books, 2. readers,. 3 staff, 4. group meetings, and 5. mechanical operations and all other (stairways,elevators, tbilets, etc) Space for Books To a large extent the amount of book shelving required will depend on the size of the library service area and whether the library is a memberof a library system. Most library planners, when estimating the size of the book collection, apply a standard which ranges from three books per capita (smallest communities) to one and one-half books per capita (largest cities) . In any event enough book shelving should be provided to plan for 20 years' anticipated growth . Despite the fact that there is considerable variation in the size of books, there are several reliable formulas which may be used to estimate the amount of space required for books . These are : reading rooms, 50 books per foot of standard height wall shelving, or 100 books per footof double-faced shelving ; bookstack areas, 15 books per square foot (includes
  • 42. aisles), or 2 books per cubic foot . Approximately 50 longplay phonograph records may be shelved in one lineal foot of wall shelving . Space for Readers Reader seating requirements should be determined for at least 20 years ahead . Minimum allowances are made of 30 sq ft per adultreader and 20 sq ft per child . These allocations for reader seating are in terms of net space for readers, chairs, tables, aisles, and service desk . Seating requirements should be listed according to the severalareas of the building . Space for Staff Space requirements for the staff must also be stated in the program . These estimates will be conditioned by: 1. anticipated growth for a 20-year period and 2. the nature and extent of the library's service program . Space for staff be calculated on the basis of "one staff member (full-time or equivalent) . . . for each 2,500 people in the service area ."' It is a minimum standard that includes pages but not maintenance personnel . Staff space requirements should be calculated on the basis of 100 sq ft per staff member. It is important that this standard be met for there is ample evidence that space for staff has been outgrown more rapidly than any other type of space in most library buildings .service program will require the support of an enlarged staff .The unit of measurement of 100 sft per staff member includes space for desk, chair, books, and equipment .A checklist of staff work areas should include(1) administrative offices, (2) work rooms, and (3) staff lunch and lounge rooms . Space for Mechanical Operation Included within this category are halls, stairways, toilets, elevators and lifts, air ducts, heating and air conditioning equipment, closets, and shops . Because it is exceedingly easy to underestimate the amount of space required for mechanical operations, it is recommended that the best available technical advice be secured to assure inclusion of an accurate estimate within the program statement . Fortunately, with the development of new construction materials and techniques combined with new concepts in planning, much less space is needed for these. In addition to locating a maximum number ofpublic services on the main floor, the followingpoints should be kept in mind : 1 . Only one complete card catalog should be maintained . It should be located conveniently as near as possible to the reading and reference areas, circulation desk, and the processing department.Department catalogs, a children's catalog, and shelflist and other processing records should be placed in their respective areas needed . 2 . Except for large libraries, there should not be more than one circulation desk . It should be near the main entrance where there will be direct visual control of the movement of both children and adults . 3 . There should be a single public entrance within short distanceof the circulation desk . Auditoriums and meeting rooms need not be directly accessible from the main entrance . 4 . Public toilets, telephones, and display cases should be located where they can be supervised by circulation desk personnel . Cultural LIBRARIES Service and Space Relationships Cultural Library Location
  • 43. 5. Every public service area should be supported by book storage, office, and work areas. Reading rooms should be grouped so that they may be served by common book storage, office, and work area . 6. A librarian or attendant should not be responsible for areas more than 55 ft beyond his desk . 7 . Load bearing walls should be kept to a minimum and maximum use of shelving and furniture made to separate different service areas . Other factors, such as exterior light and noise, also may influence the location of various areas within the building .Finally it may be said that the success or failure of a building is measured by the degree to which planners succeed in applying the foregoing principles of desirable interrelationships Whether it is a simple village library or a complex large-city library, every effort should be made to facilitate supervisory control, flexibility, and convenience of readers . The Site In addition to central location, several other important criteria should be considered in library site selection : 1 . The site should be prominent . A corner site at a busy intersection where the library can easily be seen is preferred . Maximum use should be made of display windows and views of the interior . 2. The site should permit street level entrance Although a site that slopes to the rear has certain advantages,a level site should be acquired if possible . 3. The site should be large enough for expansion, accessibility for service vehicles and bookmobiles, and a modest amount of landscaping . 4 . The site should permit orientation of the front of the building to the north in order to minimize glare from the sun . When this is not possible, orientation to the east is the second choice. However, an otherwise excellent, centrally located site should not be eliminated for lack of appropriate orientation . Modern year around temperature control devices and artificial light can be used effectively to minimize sun exposure problems . 5 . Rectangular service areas within a building lend themselves to easy supervision . As a result, a site which is rectangular in shape and permits construction of a rectangular building should be obtained if possible . 6 . Ideally, a site should have uniform foundation conditions, either rock or soil . Test borings should be made, preferably before a site is purchased . Certain other conditions should be met if the community is to be adequately served . First, the library should be located reasonably near adequate automobile parking . Second, parking provisions should be made for bookmobiles, other official library vehicles, and library staff members . Third, automobile access to drive-in service windows should be provided where this feature has been incorporated into the library building design . Although emphasis has been placed on acquiring a site which would be large enough to permit easy horizontal expansion, it is importantto note that under certain conditions purchase of a strategically located smaller site can be justified provided there is enough space to locate primary adult public service areas at street level .

It also houses the Public Library Department which, with 68 public libraries including the Central Public Library in its jurisdiction, is managed by the Directorate of Public Libraries under the Ministry of Cultural Affairs The auditorium ( Shawkat Osman Auditorium ) of the library is a major venue for cultural events in Dhaka, including the International Short and Independent Film Festival. It also houses the Library Training Institute funded and managed by the Library Association of Bangladesh (LAB). It also has a reprography service, in-house binderyandconservationsection. 5.3 Collection of Book As on March 2007, the Library has 119,750 books in collection, including old and rare books with historical value, along with a small valuable collection of 40 to 50 manuscripts titles for research and reference services. Books in the collection are mostly in Bengali and English, as well as other languages including Urdu, Hindi, Arabic and Persian. As a depository library, it deposits all Bangladeshi publications under the Copyright. The Library receives most of the Bangladeshi daily newspapers and periodicals. It also has a special collection of juvenile material and is providing separate reading facilities for children. The Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) system with minor modifications is used to organize library materials. As on March 2018, the Library has 2,17,850 ( Ref.

Area : 2500.0 m2 Project Year : 1935. 5.12 Project Background . Despite being one of the seminal works of modern Scandinavian architecture, Alvar Aalto’s Viipuri Library languished in relative obscurity for three-quarters of a century until its media breakthrough in late 2014. The library's massing consists of two simple rectangular blocks that are offset horizontally from one another, but the internal spatial organization is deceptively more complex. What is often described as three floors in plan is actually in section in a variegated array of volumetric conditions and a complex field of transitional spaces. The programmatic arrangement bears some resemblance to the simpler massing, with administrative and ceremonial spaces in the main entrance block and the bulk of the reading spaces and bookshelves in the larger rear block. The intricacy of the plans, however, reveals this diagram not to be so straightforward in practice. The circulation of this complex interior arrangement captures the essence of Aalto’s design. Analogizing to a rugged mountain topography defined primarily by changes in elevation, he strove to create a stepped “interweaving of the section and ground plan” and “a kind of unity of horizontal and vertical construction. 5.13 DesignConcept :
