Session Description:
Discover how two very different, well-known university libraries navigated the master planning process to recast their librarys physical space to better align with evolving roles, student needs and their institutions mission. Both library deans will share insight into challenges encountered in bringing library needs to the forefront of their universitys consciousness and how they advocated for action on their best laid plans. Valuable take-aways will be shared with attendees struggling with how to better leverage their physical space to meet current demands, build consensus, involve students and faculty, and answer the universal question: What will all of this cost?
