Gen: K-12 Layout

[Ruth Tennies <TENNIER@MAIL.FIRN.EDU>]

I am the media specialist at a private K-8 school.  We are in the process
of planning a library for grades K-12.  (We hope to add a high school).  At
present we have about 490 students, 11,000 volumes, and 6 computer
terminals, but we want to plan for as many as 900 students.  What
suggestions do you have for a library that would house all of these grades?
What would be the best way to separate the younger and older students?
Where can I look for layout suggestions that would include magazines, work
area, equipment, audio-visual, computers, office space, etc.  Most of the
layouts I have seen are for elementary grades only, etc.  If anyone has
layouts you could fax or mail me, I would be grateful.  Any suggestions you
have would be appreciated!
