Join us for a day-long collaborative event on building and design! Friday, October 20, 2017 9:00 AM–5:30 PM
Vancouver Community Library 901 C Street, Vancouver, WA 98660 Registration is open for the latest installment of Library Journal's Design Institute. Hosted in partnership with Fort Vancouver Regional Library— at their award-winning Vancouver Community Library, this day-long collaborative event will bring you the latest trends in library design. Dig deep with architects, librarians, and vendors to explore building/renovating/retrofitting spaces both large and small that will engage your community.
Whether you're in the dreaming and planning stages or further along the design road, you'll find ideas, information, and inspiration for renovating, retrofitting, or building anew - no matter your budget! This full-day event features: - expert panels with architects and librarians on issues and innovations in library space, design, and construction
- tips on how to get your community on board
- hands-on, architect-led breakout sessions dealing with real-life design challenges submitted in advance by you and your fellow attendees
- "speed-sessions" with individual architects who will help you address your own library-specific questions (be sure to bring photos, illustrations, floor plans, or plat maps–whatever you think will enhance the discussion)
Arrive early on Thursday, October 19th for an exciting (and optional) tour of a STEM building, a downtown construction site, and a LEED Gold library. More information available here.
