A new library cannot be successfully created or an old one replanned until librarian, architect and others form an integrated team. Each must appreciate the other's expertise, and know something of their work. Each must also assess and communicate their own requirements and information needs, sufficiently quantified, at the right stage in development.
This book offers general principles for the basic brief, and step-by-step guidance on how to develop it in greater detail. It is the only book in English (and the only comprehensive one in any language) for those who come to this task for the first time, or who have experience of it but may be involved in new commissioning or redevelopment.
