Eco-Landscape Design

Good design should be an integral part of every library, no matter how grand or modest its scale. Featuring projects which have already been realized, this book shows how the design and engineering of libraries need not compromise a site's varied ecology.

Creating a Tween Collection shows librarians how to evaluate their current juvenile and teen collections; meet all tween needs for recreation, education, and life skills; and carve out space, market, budget, and justify the need for a tween collection.

Architects and designers face unprecedented challenges from today's environmental and ecological problems. This book takes a positive perspective by featuring fully realized design solutions from some of the world's most innovative architects and engineers.
