New Elementary School Libraries

Our community just approved a bond issue to build two new elementary schools. (K-2 & 3-5). I would love to receive input on what you feel a new library must have for 21st century learners. Any ideas on floor plans, community space, equipment, work areas, etc. would be appreciated!

  • Hi Mark,

    I've a list of my observations and writings about this topic here:

    I'm dusting off my old notes since we are building a new, hopefully state-of-the-art, elementary school in our district too.

    Congrats on passing a bond referendum in this economic climate. Your district must be doing something very right.

    All the best,

    Doug
