This document discusses the transformation of the Main Library in Aarhus, Denmark into an "Urban Mediaspace" called Dokk1. Some key points:
1) Dokk1 opened in 2015 as an innovative public space that brings together library services, citizens services, and community partners into one large building.
2) The transformation aims to make the library more open, flexible, and focused on citizen needs in the digital age rather than just storing books.
3) Dokk1 includes many new features like a playground, cafes, meeting rooms, labs for music, news, and other activities, and services from other public offices.
4) The process involved citizens and
Marketing of library services in india anil mishraAnil Mishra
Marketing of library services aims to increase usage of services by treating library services as products and users as customers, even though libraries are non-profit. With changing user demands and technology, libraries need marketing to promote awareness of their electronic resources and services. Some methods of marketing libraries include creating websites, organizing events, campaigns, and surveys to bring attention to services and increase the reputation of libraries and librarians. While India has made progress in library marketing, more can be done through government support, user-friendly services, and public libraries.
Overview of Memphis Public Library & Information CenterDamone Virgilio

It aims to serve lifelong learners, encourage young readers, help newcomers improve their language skills, assist small business owners, bring history to life, and connect people through its computer and digital resources. The library helps customers find books and resources to achieve their dreams and make assignments easier through its various regions, departments, and services.
Redesigning Public Services: The 21st Century Library User ExperienceDavid King
This document discusses redesigning public services like libraries for the 21st century. It notes that libraries now face more competition and must improve the user experience. It suggests three paths for the user experience: structural changes like ease of use, a community experience through participation and conversation, and understanding the customer journey. It recommends libraries listen to users, improve small things, meet users where they are, make the library a destination, focus on interaction and staff, and find champions to help change focus.
The document discusses the concept of a "third place" being implemented at the McMillan Memorial Library to address declining in-person library usage. A third place is a public space separate from home and work that fosters community and civic engagement. The library aims to create a "commons" third place area with different zones for various activities, collections, and programming to make the library a community destination. The commons would have a coffeehouse, be highly accessible and accommodating, and help strengthen community through lifelong learning as outlined in the library's mission.

Public libraries have a social mission which involves in providing collections and services to meet a community’s information needs. They exist to serve communities. It is the local gate way to knowledge and provides a basic condition for life long learning, independent decision making and cultural development of the individual and social groups. But tremendous changes in the Information and Communication Technology and changing life style has greatly influenced the information seeking behavior of the library users. Library services based on the conventional service model lack the new information services and there exist a large gap between user needs and actual library service. The public library services should be re-engineered to meet the changing atmosphere. Library leaders must have the skills to create and nurture a new type of library culture in which change is encouraged and new visions of service implemented. A new focus on the needs of non traditional library users has also become necessary to attract the community.
School Library as a Social Space to Create, Collaborate and Share: A Social M...S. L. Faisal
This document outlines a presentation discussing how school libraries can serve as social spaces for students to create, collaborate, and share using social media. It begins with defining social spaces and the concept of the "third place," then discusses how libraries can provide personal and learning spaces. The presentation explores how social media allows the library to become a new social space where students can collaborate on wikis and social networks, create content like blogs and videos, and share stories, experiences, and resources. Case studies provide analytics on library blogs, Facebook pages, and Twitter accounts that demonstrate student engagement with these social media platforms. The conclusion advocates for school libraries to embrace social media and serve as "third places" that support collaborative, creative, and shared knowledge-
Knud Schulz presented on transforming the main library in Aarhus, Denmark into an "Urban Mediaspace" called Dokk1. The key points were:
1. Dokk1 underwent a major transformation process involving staff and citizens to redesign the library space and services around new values of being a public innovation space, lifelong learning, and bringing people together.
2. The transformation process used design thinking principles like prototyping with users and co-creation to develop the new vision, values, design principles, and ways of organizing the space through partnership.
3. The new Dokk1 space emphasizes flexibility, unprogrammed areas, and focusing on user needs through a
Public libraries are libraries that are accessible to the general public and are funded by public sources like taxes. They have five key characteristics - they are supported by public funds, governed by a board to serve the public interest, open to all community members, entirely voluntary to use, and provide basic services without charge. Public libraries aim to serve the general public or special categories through providing free information, education, recreation, and inspiration. They allow temporary borrowing and have reference materials. Public libraries play an important role in supporting an educated population.
National library of India. Library and information scienceharshaec
The National Library of India is located in Kolkata and is under the Ministry of Tourism and Culture. It is the largest library in India with over 2.2 million books and other materials. The National Library began as the Calcutta Public Library in 1836 and merged with other libraries over time, such as the Imperial Library in 1903. It became the National Library in 1953. Today it serves as a repository for all published works in India and works to enrich the country's collection of books and heritage.
The document provides information on several public library design projects, including:
1) The Bown Crossing Public Library preliminary design which aimed to provide community space, inspire all ages, and reflect the local environment in a sustainable building.
2) The Lawrence Public Library expansion which wrapped the existing building to create a community hub, adding spaces for different ages and improving energy efficiency.
3) The Washington Highlands Library designed by Adjaye Associates to lift public spaces above street level and provide views of the neighborhood in energy efficient geometric forms.
4) The Dougherty Station Public Library master plan which created a new library as part of a larger community center in an integrated development.

This document summarizes a presentation by John Blyberg on user experience design for 21st century libraries. It discusses designing libraries around user experience with a focus on interface, content, personas, physical space, events and programming, simplicity, openness, feedback and personal transformation. The presentation was given at the Bridging Worlds 2008 conference in Singapore and includes photos credits.
The Seattle Public Library was designed by Rem Koolhaas and LMN Architects. It features an 11-level glass structure located in Seattle, Washington. The library's most distinctive feature is the book "spiral" - a continuous sloped surface with shelves that allows patrons easy access to materials. The interior is divided into zones including a parking area, public reading rooms, cafe, and main library space. The building's flexible and open design was meant to accommodate future expansions and innovations in information access.
This document provides information about three public library case studies:
1) The Daegu Gosan Public Library in South Korea, which uses an open floor plan and children/adult zones to promote interaction.
2) The Bibliotheca Alexandrina in Egypt, located on the historic harbor, with spaces like a planetarium, digital lab, and rare books collection.
3) The Sharjah Public Library in the UAE reflects Islamic architectural styles with domes and arches, and provides activities for learners of all ages.
Standard space requirements and functions for different library areas are also outlined.
The Peckham Library in London was designed by Alsop Architects to revitalize the economically depressed area of Southwark and challenge stereotypes of libraries. The pre-patinated copper facade deters crime while allowing interior spaces filled with natural light. Pods and columns divide the interior into intimate reading nooks. Sustainability was prioritized through maximizing natural light, ventilation, and using low-maintenance materials. The striking and welcoming design has boosted the neighborhood's reputation.
