Editorial Review:

This work on designing and renovating the school library guides the reader from the stage of needs assessment to the review of the architects plans. It details the planning process that links instructional needs to media programmes and, by means of descriptive case studies, covers facility specifications. Administrators, media specialists and architectural firms may use the model described here to foresee programme needs and to address appropriate questions to one another. Organized in six parts, the book gives an overview of the process or framework for facilities planning, presents a model for an educational specifications document, provides a description of the design process from the architecture's perspective, includes case studies of specific facilities and summarizes some of the human considerations and beneficial outcomes of good facilities planning.

This is not a revision but an entirely updated volume of selected high-quality literature published from 1986 to 1993. Volume 2 shows how to create a literature-based program--either thematic or across the curriculum--based on quality contemporary and classic literature. The authors explain how to select the most appropriate books and how to use them in the classroom to encourage learning through literature. Each volume contains six chapters arranged by grade level and divided into units covering books on a particular topic or theme, books by a particular author, or books of a particular type or genre.
