[PADG:1364] space planning
Hello,
I know a lot of folks are busy with ALA at the moment but am putting
this out anyway. We in the Yale Preservation Dept would like to do some
serious space planning for the whole department. My thought is to have
someone come in and take a look at the spaces we have, talk with staff
about their jobs and how our operations work, and come up with a plan on
how to better utilize are spaces--this can be a full or partial shuffling
of who occupies what spaces, some renovation, and/or re-org within each
space. The options are open.
Has anyone ever had an outside consultant do this? Have you had your
institutions architects and planners do this? I'm interested in hearing
how preservation folks have handled this. This is not designing a new
facility per se but making use of what we have in a better way.
Feel free to respond to the list or to me individually.
Thanks.
