New Library Buildings in Europe: Documentation 2012

Abstract

This book brings together information about the latest, mostly academic library building projects from across Europe. New attractive buildings and huge renovation projects are presented in this tenth volume of the series established by Professor Elmar Mittler (former Director of the State and University Library Göttingen), who was the first chairman of the LIBER Architecture Group. The publication of this book coincides with the 16th LIBER Architecture Group Seminar, which takes place in Prague in April 2012. In addition to hearing about the latest developments in planning and design and offering visits to new library buildings, the Seminar provides an opportunity to debate ideas and meet colleagues from institutions across Europe. We believe that the projects in this book could help you in pursuing your own project.
