As we plan for changes in our library spaces – whether via renovation, additions, or new buildings – how can we ensure that our organizations evolve to realize the full transformational potential in these new environments? Libraries can optimize the opportunities that new spaces offer for enriched service programs and new, expanded relationships with faculty, students, and staff from other institutional units.

This workshop will encourage individuals and institutional teams to think through the challenges and opportunities for their organizations while redesigning spaces. Segments of the workshop will address leading organizational change, engaging staff in innovation, new service models, and staff spaces. Through a combination of panels and group activities, participants will understand key challenges and opportunities for organizational change presented by library space design.
