The diagram compares the the layout of a public library before redevelopment and after it. Overall, the fiction area remained the largest room, whereas other ares were replaced, like reference and enquiry desk, or expanded, like children’s area.
Looking first at the plan in 2005, the entrance was located in the south. After the entrance, on the right, were the enquiry desk, passing which visitors entered reference area. Referance was a large space, second only to fiction room which was located next to reference in the western part of the building. Children’s book room was to the north of reference.
After redevelopment, the library experienced the changes. In particular, children’s book room was expanded and transformed into children’s area. reference area, which was an open space, was removed and computers room was built. finally, enquiry desk is no longer available, because it was replaced by cafe. The entrance remained unchanged and still is located in the southern part of the building
