The provided maps depict the floor plan of a public library 20 years ago and the changes that occurred to it today. Overall, after analyzing the given maps, what can be seen is that such changes can benefit adults and children who want to buy food inside the library due to the addition of the self-service machines. It can be added that the major change is transforming the enquiry desk place into a café.
To begin with, the children’s books room became the lecture room, and the CDs, videos, and computer games room became a children’s fiction books room, where storytelling events take place. Moreover, the reading room was transformed into a computer room.
In addition, the adult fiction books corner took the place of adult non-fiction books, and its original location became an all reference books corner. The tables and chairs in front of the entrance were removed, and the information desk was moved in front of the lecture room and between the self-service machines and the adult fiction books shelves.
