It analyses through case studies, how contemporary libraries have been redesigned to offer a new kind of public space while also reshaping neglected areas in cities. Broadly understood the book seeks to comprehend contemporary library design, urban development and the revitalization of specific urban areas. Important and world famous architects - star-architects - have designed signature architecture in the contemporary libraries selected for this volume. The examples to be showcased in the book include the main Seattle Public Library, Salt Lake City Public Library, New York Public Library, Spain Library Medellin, Colombia, Halifax Central Library Nova Scotia, Canada and Library of Alexandria in Egypt to offer examples of what constitute the approach to libraries and urban development in many cities around the world nowadays. Data in the form of interviews to library directors, librarians and users, tours of libraries, visual documentation and archival research have been collected for most public libraries included as case studies for the book. The impulse to archive has been framed and understood in the literature as a modern desire to control fleeting reality. Libraries as such respond to this desire by collecting, storing and circulating resources (books and other kinds of media). But more recently there has been an emphasis on the public character of library spaces in which people gather not only to obtain information and read by themselves but also to experience the very urban quality of proximity to others in more informal and less structured environments as public space. Community events characterize the programming of all the libraries included in the book. The design of these new libraries fit into urban development initiatives where libraries - like other iconic cultural spaces of cities - become central components to market cities for the consumption of culture. Libraries become sites to be visited and explored by tourists while providing services for residents. They are also machines to accelerate urban development especially in areas previously neglected by development. 001433121 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed February 24, 2021). 001433121 650_0 $$aPublic libraries$$vCase studies. 001433121 650_0 $$aLibrary architecture$$vCase studies. 001433121 650_0 $$aLibrary buildings$$xDesign and construction$$vCase studies. 001433121 650_0 $$aCommunity development, Urban$$vCase studies. 001433121 650_0 $$aUrban renewal$$vCase studies. 001433121 650_0 $$aCivic improvement$$vCase studies. 001433121 650_0 $$aCity planning$$vCase studies. 001433121 650_0 $$aSociology, Urban. 001433121 650_6 $$aBibliothèques publiques$$vÉtudes de cas. 001433121 650_6 $$aArchitecture des bibliothèques$$vÉtudes de cas. 001433121 650_6 $$aDéveloppement communautaire urbain$$vÉtudes de cas. 001433121 650_6 $$aRénovation urbaine$$vÉtudes de cas. 001433121 650_6 $$aVilles$$xAménagement et assainissement$$vÉtudes de cas. 001433121 650_6 $$aSociologie urbaine. 001433121 655_7 $$aCase studies.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01423765 001433121 655_7 $$aCase studies.$$2lcgft 001433121 655_7 $$aÉtudes de cas.$$2rvmgf 001433121 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001433121 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783030579647 001433121 852__ $$bebk 001433121 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-57965-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001433121 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1433121$$pGLOBAL_SET 001433121 980__ $$aBIB 001433121 980__ $$aEBOOK 001433121 982__ $$aEbook 001433121 983__ $$aOnline 001433121 994__ $$a92$$bISE
