When it's time to start planning for a renovation or construction
project, you don't need a book that covers everything from A to Z.
Instead you need a concentrated set of tools and techniques that
will guide you and your team to find the best solutions for your
specific project. That's exactly what library building expert
Schlipf provides in his new book, which will be a key resource for
library directors, administrators, board members, trustees, and
planning professionals. Pinpointing the elements that make library
buildings functional, in this book readers will find a streamlined
organization of the text that enables quick consultation and
facilitates collaboration; concise coverage of the essentials of
the library construction process, including who does what, how
things work, and how to stay out of trouble along the way; advice
on important planning and workflow considerations such as site
selection, schematic design, funding, design development, the
bidding process, construction, and post-construction occupancy;
discussion of the characteristics of successful library
buildings-buildings that are easy to maintain, welcoming to people
with disabilities, have less trouble-prone restrooms, and provide
security for users, staff, and collections; and an overview of bad
ideas in library architecture, with pointed guidance on how to
steer clear of them from the very beginning of your project. This
powerful primer will help everyone involved in a library building
project stay focused on the task at hand.
