- Design for Progress. A Report of the Workshop in School Library Quarters and Equipment, July 9 to 20, 1962. Strohecker, Edwin C., Ed. Acoustics Audiovisual Aids Building Design Controlled Environment Cooperative Planning Flooring Furniture Interior Design Libraries Library Equipment Library Facilities Library Planning Library Standards Lighting Thermal Environment Significant ideas brought out in the workshop include--(1) that the library is a necessary part of the whole relational structure in education, and (2) that changes in educational programs and methods call for new library planning standards; a library should be able to provide science facilities, audiovisual materials, and a variety of group-work as well as individual research areas. Topics treated in the workshop sessions include interior decoration, floor covering, lighting, furniture and other equipment, sound and thermal control, and the working relation between architect and librarian. The report also includes a review of several workshop discussions, an outline of planning requirements and procedures stemming from the workshop, and a bibliography of related reading. (KK)
