Revolutions in library design

Geraldine mentioned during induction today that the face of libraries appears to be changing towards a retailing approach, although those changes will probably take many years to reach us.  She mentioned shop fronts and not having a central circulation desk!  Interesting concept, but it sent me looking online.

Now Procter Library does not appear to be without a central desk - but its design is quite intriguing - hope to visit it one day.

ABOUT COMMENTING HERE:
1. You can use some HTML tags, such as <b>, <i>, <a>

2. Apparently blogspot requires that we allow third party cookies for the darn feature to work. Sorry, nothing I can do about it - Google will lead you to instructions.

3. I don't generally post on contentious issues so I don't expect problems.
However, I will delete comments I consider:
disrespectful, destructive, irrelevant or SPAM, (even sucking up: praising my post without reason while linking to a business site).
