We do have a number of options currently, but just didn't have any on the second floor before.<br /><br />We still have a lot of signs telling students not to reshelve books. Perhaps I should consider taking those down.<br /><br />We actually have really good lighting in this building. I'm not sure a lamp would add any more - it's so bright already. But I'll be paying attention to see if any areas are darker than others.<br /><br />Amazingly enough, all of our windows have blinds, which students open and close whenever they want. I am not sure about the individual study rooms though, so I should check on those.<br /><br />What we really need is more outlets. I should ask my boss about that again.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01554496180206096813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16867968.post-58977339178187026182009-06-30T07:13:52.921-05:002009-06-30T07:13:52.921-05:00Hopefully your Director will be able to find some ...Hopefully your Director will be able to find some money to purchase some additional soft seating. I think it's a quick win with students, but the trade off is that the money needs to be found somewhere in the **cough** book **cough** budget.<br /><br />I am beginning to think that sometime in the 70-80s the need for repeatative librarian signage was ingrained in library school students. For whatever reason, we had (note that word had) about 500 table tent signs sitting out in the stacks telling students not to reshelve books. <br /><br />I'm not sure what your lighting situation is like, but perhaps another quick way to spruce up the place would be to go to IKEA and purchase either some table lights or floor reading lights for your comfy chairs. This would require there to be electricity nearby and someone would probably have to make sure they are shut-off at night. I think the pain might be worth it if you're looking for an inexpensive win. <br /><br />Depending on the construction of your study rooms (ours have one entire wall of glass), you might also buy some static cling window decals or even the opaque plastic static cling roll that looks like rice paper (Home Depot or Lowes should have it) and apply it in a band or stripe.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09621434585011178636noreply@blogger.com
