CURRENT SITUATION
The current library is 30 years old. Student study space could be improved with
additional collaborative environments; Learning Commons
Over the last 10 years, Library collection expenditures has changed from 100% print to 80% electronic investments.
Service Desk Information Transactions increased 17% between 2003 and 2006.
The existing 4th and 5th floor of the Library Building provides the best option for limited / phased investment.
The library must have a roadmap for the future.
Library Design and Space Planning
Exploring ways in which Duquesne’s Gumberg Library is changing from printed materials to “a full range of scholarly activity.”
Students use the library for collaborative learning and research. The Gumberg library is:
• Centrally located• Largest seating for study on
campus• Open extra hours• Hub of the wheel
Group Study
When the library was built adding the 4th and 5th floor the main focus was to increase print holdings and improve materials management.
Print Materials Processing
Casual Users: Starbucks
Entrance of Library: Emphasize Identity
Side View of Library: Plaza Renovation Requirements
Findings: Visual Scan• During our work sessions, tour and visual scan of the
Gumberg Library facility, each area was rated for its strengths and weaknesses.
• Participants graded the existing library’s flexibility, access and seating capacity at a B- . – Entrance on the 4th floor – C– Open computers on the 4th floor – B– Student Seating on the 5th floor – C+– EZ borrower Office – D– Circulation Workroom - D
• This clearly demonstrated a need to redesign components within the library. – The entrance and service points on the 4th floor.
Student seating and staff offices on 5th floor.
Improve research seating and collaborative / group areas.
Improve and enhance electronic access capabilities.
Satisfy student demand for study space in the library.
Improve the relationship between the library and faculty/researcher.
Increase the usage and the return on investment of electronic/scholarly resources.
Increase the quality of education for accreditation: “In the Learning Commons,
students will find electronic and print information resources, along with reference librarians to provide research consultation and assistance.” M. Gorman, 2006 President of
ALA, Dean of Library Services California State Fresno.
