Designing a better Library shouldn't be so difficult
Running a Library can be chaotic to say the least. Designing it shouldn't have to be. Take the guess work out of it by working with a licensed Library Designer as your coach. Stop worrying about how to get started, when to hire a contractor or how to lay out the best spaces and work with someone who can guide you every step of the way.
Decide what coaching suite you need, whether you're in the programming and planning phase, or the full design phase, and select the coaching style that fits you best.
