I just received some photos from our client and friend Karen Knox, Director of the Orion Township (MI) Public Library. Kimberly Bolan and Associates has been partnering with Karen and her team over the past few years on both strategic planning and facilities planning.
Karen's compiled images showing the results of Phases 1 and 2 of their 3-phase space redesign project (on a budget). Phase 1 included a remodel of their lobby and implementation of a new service model (smaller service point, self-serve check-out and holds, and more). Phase 2 involved a complete redesign of their children's area with collections, spaces, and interactive elements for ages 0 - 12.
Phase 3 begins this month with the revamping of the rest of the library. Stay tuned for more!
