✤   What would ideal library look like?
    “quiet, but not too quiet”

    “. . .where ‘even if you’re by yourself, you don’t feel like you’re by yourself,’ as one
    participant put it.”

    “‘coffeeshop’ feel or ‘living room atmosphere,’ where they could mingle with other
    people if they wanted to, but can do their own thing if not.”



“‘like home room for your community.’”
