Title: Checklist of Library Building Design Considerations
Author: William W. Sannwald

Summary:
With very little narrative text, this book may not seem the gold mine that it is. From site selection to dedication ceremonies, the chapters in this book walk you through the many considerations which need to be thought of when building a new library, or even renovating/adding on to an existing structure. Set up in workbook format, you can easily work through the sections one at a time. While the book does not fully address funding issues, working through the book will help you plan for addressing questions you will receive during the funding process.
