In the age of information, digital communication and the
computer, the traditional library building type is
undergoing dramatic change, as these buildings become
portals to information in a wide variety of forms beyond
the printed page. 'Architecture for the Books' shows how
designers meet the challenge of library design for a new
generation of library users.
This publication presents more than 30 new projects from
North America, with a combination of public libraries,
school libraries and university libraries. Projects are
documented with full-colour photographs, plans, drawings
and descriptive text. This book was compiled by Michael J.
Crosbie, an internationally recognised architect, author,
journalist, critic, and teacher.
