520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Several Challenging facts faced by research organizations, Colleges and universities require a Comprehensive volume dealing with the problems involved in the planning and construction of library buildings.<br/>This Book tries to identify the problems, break them down into the component parts and indicate the factors that ought to be taken into account in arriving at solutions. No building is perfect. Yet the most serious mistakes are likely to be those made when one does not realize that a problem exists. This volume, then, is intended to provide a substitute for much of the understanding gained from first-hand experience.<br/>Every college, university and independent research library will sooner or later need to plan for a library addition, a major renovation or an entirely new wing or a separate building, Whether enrollments are being held steady, are decreasing, or are growing, the library will change because the collections will have a net increase in size, the types and the quantity of materials in other than book format will increase and computer based technological changes will prompt alteration, if not major changes, in a library building. That is where this voluminous work helps you plan and execute.<br/>Major additions in this third edition have come in the treatment of the very wide ranging influence of information technologies and automated services and modern telecommunications. A host of other technical issues have also been included. Access for the physically limited is emphasized. More examples of the library concerns and solutions are referenced to libraries throughout. Value engineering is developed as a concept for cost and project benefit. The treatment of preservation-based environment is revised and expanded.<br/>
