  • Let's Go to the Mall: Thinking outside the Neighborhood Branch, Libraries in Malls Make for Happy Partnerships and Patrons Blankinship, Donna Gordon Library Facilities Public Libraries Library Services Library Development Community Relations User Needs (Information) Cost Effectiveness Branches in shopping malls help build community by attracting new patrons to the library. They help libraries offer exciting new venues with a retail-like approach and raise awareness of the work libraries are doing. In some cases, though not at Glendale, the library is more cost-effective owing to the smaller space used to serve patrons. These branches also provide the community with a public retreat from the hustle and bustle of the retail world. This article discusses the positive effects libraries have had on malls and discusses specific libraries that are present in malls.
