I find the idea of attractive displays and cozy seating areas very
appealing for my library, and am going to move in that direction. But I
agree with those who say we need to be a library first and that we must
focus on quality cataloging and subject-heading assignment to make it
possible for students to find books easily by genre.
But oh, how I would love to have room (and a principal of the right
philosophies) to have a small caf=E9 and couch area in the library. Talk
about promoting reading!
