Feinberg (director, Middle Country Public Library on Long Island, New York) and Keller (director of library planning and design for VITETTA Architects and Engineers) provide guidance on the design of space for children in libraries and other public places, covering concerns of "architecture, interior design, graphic design, themed design, and the continuum of these aspects as they inform space for children and teens." Their chapters examine, in turn: design facilitation; reflecting the mission of the library; spatial planning of furniture, shelving, and equipment; relationships and adjacencies; architectural and environmental elements; providing a welcoming space; mood and ambiance; and financial, political, and administrative considerations.
