Space is at a premium in libraries. How do you manage the collection, the need for programming space, safety issues, study space and meeting rooms in your library? What do you do if you get funding for renovation or construction? LM is highlighting topical Library Science titles from our collection in occasional emails. Here are selected titles on facilities and space management purchased recently. You can search MeLCat for LM titles and you can also check our New Library Science Collection titles at https://eds.s.ebscohost.com/eds/search/basic?vid=0&sid=4da17cfa-3684-4998-90f3-af3a98b23456%40redis. Use "Library Science Collection" as one of the search terms in the Advanced Search and you will pull only those collection titles.
