Growing student numbers, increased student expectations, new
approaches to learning, and fast-paced technological advances all
contribute to the need for universities to take a more strategic
approach to their buildings, including formal and informal learning
spaces. Exploring Informal Learning Space in the University
addresses the issue of informal learning space from the
perspectives of a comprehensive range of stakeholders, including
students, academics, facilities managers, university managers, IT
managers, architects, interior designers, and librarians. With
contributions from a range of experts, practitioners and academics
around the world, this book uses a combination of case studies and
theoretical discussion to explore the rationale and theory of
informal learning space alongside the practicalities of its
planning, development and utilization. The volume is at once
ambitious and pragmatic, combining innovative thinking with a firm
awareness of practicalities, including the varied constraints faced
by universities and the need to work in tandem with broader
strategies. Advocating broad collaboration at both planning and
delivery stage, the result is essential reading for anyone involved
in the delivery of learning space provision - from architects and
designers, to university managers and strategists. It will also be
of particular interest to academics, researchers and postgraduate
students engaged in the study of library & information science
or higher education policy and strategy.
