FW: Media/Technology Construction and Partnership Between Public

["Taylor, Roseanne" <TaylorR@CFBISD.EDU>]

This is my first time to submit questions to LM_NET  Thanks in advance for
any suggestions, advice, or referrals to other sources.

I work at a public school library and the building principal would like to
make some changes.
I would like to make informed suggestions.  Would you be willing to help me
make suggestions on the following concerns?
1.      Floor plan concerns for a combination technology/media center. This
would include 4 small technology "pods" for community/walk-in use in the
evenings, a/v storage, offices, computers, a TV broadcast room/sound room
around 350 square feet, meeting space for up to 100 people.
2.      Natural light needs.
3.      Collection concerns .  (Maintenance/repair/costs-standardization of
policies)
4.      Personnel concerns.
5.      Student and teacher use versus  community use.

If there is another aspect to consider in either floor plans do's and
don'ts, management do's and don'ts, financial do's and don'ts or something
else please comment.
I appreciate your support
