- Does the Room Make the Library Program, or Does the Library Program Make the Room? Coatney, Sharon Library Services School Libraries Library Facilities Recently, the author participated in a conversation with several teacher-librarians about a school library remodeling project in which they were involved. The targeted libraries were in quite bad physical shape and needed extensive work; indeed, they were probably not safe. In these particular instances, not only were the libraries being physically remodeled, but the library programs were also being revamped, which is the ideal situation. Several years ago, the Library Power Program, sponsored by the Dewitt Wallace Foundation, also involved itself in that kind of sweeping change. It was very successful and deserving of duplication, but that kind of ideal situation is not the norm. When given the yearly opportunity to formally evaluate the library and its program, the evaluation was always about the collection and the instructional program, and comments about special events or specific actions by the library or its staff. Therefore, it is not the room that makes the library program or it is the library program that makes the room, but it is the people who makes the program.
