Buildings for Books : Contemporary Library Architecture

Functionally and esthetically compelling solutions for library building and spaces today that work for all users.Libraries are spaces for learning, discovery, and also for interaction. Their architecture is currently the subject of much discussion, as the demands on these cornerstones of modern civilization have changed enormously since they have had to meet the requirements of the new multimedia and digital age. The library as an institution underwent a real image change from an introverted knowledge repository to a globally networked information provider and communication mediator.The architectural expression of this expanded and constantly evolving profile of requirements makes library construction extremely multi-layered and complex.
