Driving along Alabama’s State Route 61 is like a journey through the land that time forgot. Past catfish ponds and rolling pastures, the highway pauses for a moment where it swells to form downtown Newbern (population 189), a rustic collection of warehouses and storefronts from the turn of the last century. But over the last couple of decades, Rural Studio, Auburn University’s design-build program, which is based here, has left its mark, erecting a fire station and other structures. For its latest endeavor, the school has transformed a diminutive masonry bank building into a modern, 1,600-square-foot library—Newbern’s first—that maintains the local down-home spirit while providing an inviting community resource.

some excerpts —

/

If the meaning of a word is its pattern of use, and we use this work to descibe a thing we do, then we find ourselves at the question: what is it that a library does?

What is it that only a library does?

And should a library do only the thing that a library does, as the world shifts and science becomes driven by the capabilities of technology and literary research relies more on Google Scholar and Menderley and Zotero than close reading of a text and augmented intelligences threaten to replace research assistants at the side of distinguished professors (and seek no acknowledgement in papers or preferment)?

What is that thing?

I think it’s about being the threshold between different forms of captured knowledge.

/

we must always acknowledge that the combination of physical and virtual space is itself as unique as the physical space, and allow for the local reality to intrude.

/

You are here to decide not only what your libraries contain and what they offer but, in this time of enormous threat, what we say when we say ‘library’. To decide that it means ‘something chosen’, in contrast to the great mass of everything on offer everywhere else.



Because I see a danger that library becomes, like digital, a word that conveys no meaning at all, that makes no distinction, that has neither intension nor extension but is merely a grunt made by someone who does not appreciate how today’s scholarly environment works.

You currently have an opportunity to define for yourselves a space where to talk of the library or the library service is to raise the spirit and give hope that someone, somewhere, will help – whether you’re a struggling academic or a downhearted undergraduate or a doctoral student lost in the wild wood.

So, can we capture the sense of the library and abstract something from it that will be worthy of the name in ten or twenty or fifty years time?]]></description>

The renovation will retain the original building of the Neilson Library from 1909 while removing bulky additions from over the years that Ms. Lin said created a “telescoping” effect and bisected the campus’s lawns with what amounted to a wall. Her proposal also introduces two “jewel box” wings designed with curves to let in natural light from different angles throughout the day.

“We basically get to give the heart of the campus back to Smith,” Ms. Lin said. “It was a reductivist scheme. Less is more.”

She added that restoring the open green space harks back to the original 1893 campus plan of Frederick Law Olmsted, the chief architect of Central Park. His design called for Smith’s small campus in Northampton, Mass., to double as a botanic garden.

In addition, Ms. Lin’s proposal includes a “skyline room” atop the library, with views of the campus, nearby Paradise Pond and the Holyoke Mountain Range. Also on the top level is an outdoor patio. Inside, the central atrium will be lit by an oculus, whose curves were calculated to capture and magnify sunlight.]]></description>

They have also won a Scaling Catalyst Award from the Royal Society of Arts to fund an explanatory toolkit for other organisations looking to copy the model.

I also noticed several dozen photographers running around the building, shooting everything in sight. That was a little weird for me. I'm not really used to seeing other people trying to photograph the same things I am. In fact, most people usually don't understand what I'm trying to photograph when I'm shooting a building. But in this case, there were people everywhere with cameras of all shapes and sizes running around photographing every square inch of the library. I suspect a fair number were trying out their new DSLRs from Christmas. Some of them were even following me around, and every time I turned around after getting a shot, I'd notice three or four others hovering behind me looking at what angle I'd found, waiting to get the same shot. I also got a lot of exasperated, annoyed, or weary looks from regular library patrons and staff when they saw my camera. I get the impression that photographers are a regular occurrence at the library and they've become an accepted annoyance to the regulars, kind of like the homeless population there.]]></description>

"As Zadie Smith argued beautifully in the New York Review of Books, we risk losing the library’s role as a “different kind of social reality (of the three dimensional kind), which by its very existence teaches a system of values beyond the fiscal.” 31 Barbara Fister, a librarian at Gustavus Adolphus College, offered an equally eloquent plea for the library as a space of exception."]]></description>

For more than 20 years, Jeff Lee, 60, and Ann Martin, 53, have worked at a Denver bookshop, the Tattered Cover, squirreling away their paychecks in the pursuit of a single dream: a rural, live-in library where visitors will be able to connect with two increasingly endangered elements — the printed word and untamed nature.

/

Mr. Lee also said he had occasionally faced questions about the project’s relevance in an increasingly Internet-based age.

“When Ann and I started this in the mid-90s, I never thought one of the potential problems could be the death of the book,” he said, adding that he ultimately concluded that the library would be more important in the digital era, not less. “As important as connecting people to nature and the land is now, it’s going to be even more so in the future.”]]></description>

September 11–20, 2014, Beirut

Have libraries become obsolete in the digital age? Can we conceive public libraries as something other than a collection of books? When does a library begin and end?

Started as a long-term research project in November 2013, the VOLUME project investigates the potential of libraries as sites for artistic creation and production of knowledge, as well as for the formation of critique and dialogue. For nine days, international and local artists, theorists, curators and librarians will engage the public library as a space and a concept, through a series of performances, ad-hoc interventions, talks, literary writings and installations. Events will take place at 98weeks Project Space, Assabil Libraries, and in public spaces around Beirut.

The multiplicity of interventions composing the VOLUME project mirrors the complexities that the library embodies, both as a physical and theoretical subject. Newly commissioned artworks and a program of talks will be reflecting the many facets of the library as a public space, political agent, vehicle for memory, conceptual entity, cataloguing system, fantasy and knowledge generator. What is a library after all? Something so vivid and yet so elusive. Something physical and yet conceptual. Container and content. A singular encompassing multitude. Potentially infinite and intrinsically unfinished...

    <dc:creator>asfaltics</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[My colleague Matthew Battles and I recently completed the lead book in the new metaLABprojects series that will be launched by Harvard University Press in the spring of 2014. Under the title of The Library Beyond the Book, it reflects on what libraries have been in the past from a broad cultural anthropological and architectonic standpoint in order to speculate on what they will become in the future: hybrid places that intermingle books and ebooks, analog and digital formats, paper and pixels.

Throughout history, Matthew and I argue, libraries have been sites for new media, new technical demands, and new cultural forms, that have encompassed an array of typologies that build into future scenarios for the library after the book. These scenarios include:

    the Mausoleum—a place to commemorate and commune the dead
    the Cloister–a refuge for reflection, meditation and contemplation in shared solitude [Neocloister]
    the Database—a container for information that is classified, accessible, controllable, infinitely expansible
    the sort of Warehouse where the willy-nilly proliferation of documents and stuff is rendered navigable thanks to computational supports and machine eyes [The Accumulibrary]
    a Material Epistemology, where collocations and consanguinities among different kinds of knowledge are proposed, experimented with and affirmed [The Programmable Library]
    and a series of Libraries of the Here and Now untethered to collections, from Mobile Vectors to Civic Spaces (where public ties are forged and affirmed) to freestanding Reading Rooms as spontaneous, popular, insurrectionary responses to closed and controlled versions of all of the above.

Such library types have been mixed and matched in the past, and we argue that remix remains the most plausible future scenario.]]></description>

When site licenses disappear, there is no more journal-collection development, and digital lending of journals disappears as a core service. This is a time that requires major strategic decisions from leaders in academia. With its recently released new mission statement, the Harvard Library seems to pave the way: “The Harvard Library advances scholarship and teaching by committing itself to the creation, application, preservation and dissemination of knowledge.” The future of the academic library will be implemented on these pillars. While the revised mission statement necessarily lacks specifics, it is crystal-clear in what it omits: collection development.]]></description>
