| 14.1 | Six key qualities of academic library spaces | 291 |
| 14.2 | Barry Street Library of the University of Melbourne, Australia: The library showcases some good example of the use of artificial lighting in study areas with the feature of students’ ability to control the desired level lighting | 293 |
| 14.3 | In order to control the noise created from student groups working together, in La Trobe University Library at Bundoora Campus, Melbourne, sound absorbing materials were used for the screens dividing the space and defining the group study areas | 293 |
| 14.4 | Study spaces created along two sides of an internal garden in University of Queensland Ipswich Library, Ipswich, accommodate quiet individual study, offer a pleasant well-lit ambient and view of the rainforest garden and water features, and are not completely secluded or isolated | 296 |
| 14.5 | In Deakin University Library at Waurn Ponds Campus, Geelong, project and study rooms are defined as separate enclosed spaces while maintaining visual connections. These spaces are also equipped with technologies and furniture to support students’ collaborative learning needs | 297 |
| 14.6 | Refurbishment of Brownless Biomedical Library of University of Melbourne showcases some good examples of using furniture and colours to define a range of spaces where a formerly dull rectangular space was broken down into a number of smaller spaces that accommodate a variety of functions. Built-in furniture helps in defining areas for small group collaboration and study | 298 |
| 14.7 | In Queensland University of Technology at Kelvin Grove Campus, Brisbane, a range of colour palettes are used in different library spaces corresponding to specific activities that students are engaged in | 299 |
| 14.8 | A variety of learning spaces is created in Biological Science Library of University of Queensland, Brisbane, to accommodate a range of individual and group activities. Sliding panels also installed to open up adjacent spaces and create bigger space when necessary | 300 |
| 14.9 | Dividing elements adjusted on the tables in Macquarie University Library at Macquarie Park Campus, Sydney, have the flexibility to be taken out and create different learning settings | 301 |
| 14.10. | Macquarie University Library, Sydney, showcases efforts to create a sustainable learning environment by implementing a range of sustainable design solutions i.e. reusing and recycling demolition and construction wastes, using recycled materials, maximising the use of natural light from courtyards and skylights and controlling glare by shading and double facades, and using Automated Storage & Retrieval System (ASRS) | 302 |
| 14.11. | In La Trobe University Library at Bundoora Campus, Melbourne, one of the main entrances is located along one side of the Agora, the central hub of the campus accommodating a range of student services and amenities i.e. ATM, coffee shops, and stores; a strategy that highlights the role of library as the ‘focal point’ of the university campus | 303 |
| 14.12. | A number of design features is included in Deakin University Library at Waurn Ponds Campus, Geelong, to turn the library into the heart of the campus. An outdoor area is being designed in front of the library. The library is also in close proximity to student centre building and a natural open area including a pond | 304 |
| 14.13. | Inside Deakin University Library at Waurn Ponds Campus, Geelong, the design creatively incorporates some of the carrels of the old library in the ceiling defining a space below and adding a style to the interior architecture. Staircase walls were also made using old and outdated books from the old library which contributes to the identity and historical backgrounds of the library | 304 |
| 14.14. | Deakin University Library at Burwood Campus, Melbourne, presents some good examples of providing opportunities for students to not only find their spaces in the library but also to create their “own” places among the library spaces | 305 |
| 14.15. | In the refurbishment of level 2 of Walter Harrison Law Library of University of Queensland, Brisbane, design solutions were incorporated to address requirements of technology use i.e. provision of power points on the partitions next to desks and creating a range of spaces to accommodate different functions and activities | 306 |
| 14.16. | Refurbishment of Baillieu Library of University of Melbourne, Melbourne, presents a number of design strategies to create inspirational spaces i.e. maintaining openness and creative incorporation of built-in display spaces | 307 |
