For more information on this workshop visit: http://www.acohen.com/creative.htm "Knowledge Management, Core Competency, Cultural Facility Planning" WHEN: June 13th WHERE: NYC- TBA All too often, library research facilities are designed to be either functional or aesthetic, but not necessarily both. To create spaces people find attractive and easy to use, special emphasis must be placed on the culture of research and learning, and on the development of flexible work spheres. The workshop will explore do-it-yourself techniques on how to position your library and information management team under one roof.
