Margaret Sullivan is an expert designer and bring her talent into the design of a learning commons space that turns the entire space into a very active consumption and creation space. This is simply the best book to day on physical space and it is valuable because it provides so many choices for teacher librarians, architects, teachers, and students to think about. We urge flexibility of spaces, moveable furniture and more attention to maker spaces than our author treats. An additional resource is the Physical Learning Commons QuickMooc” available at lmcsource.com to start and continue the conversation. More and more administrators are questioning what to do with library spaces that don’t attract patrons. With Margaret’s advice, the opposite happens in every reinvented space we have seen: everyone wanting to be there at the same time. We also suggest that companies other than Bretford be consulted for lots of furniture ideas. There are often a number of furniture dealers at the largest of the library conventions so you can see and compare across brands. Buy this book if you have any renovation dreams. Start the conversation.
