Following its refurbishment, Burleigh Heads library is the first to organise its resources by genre or subject, helping showcase what’s on offer and enabling customers to browse and find items more easily.
In recent years, libraries have been evolving to embrace new technologies, entertainment streaming, working from home and the changing needs of older customers.
Library design consultant Kevin Hennah lead an informative talk on the design trends in libraries, and how design is helping libraries maintain relevance, showcasing some innovative library designs and discussing the considerations and changes that went into the refurbishment of the library.
