Opening the Book specialises in the design and installation of reader-friendly interiors for public libraries.  We also run training programmes in the reader-centred approach for library managers and frontline staff.

Library Design
Opening the Book's experienced designers provide space planning and design services for all sizes of libraries. From quick advice to feasibility studies to full installations, we can help you make the most of your options and persuade others of the benefits of including a library.


 

Library Training
Library work is changing and staff need new skills. On the shop floor, customer care is becoming customer engagement while traditional displays are being replaced by retail-style merchandising. Today’s library managers are expected to develop new expertise in marketing and audience development, in strategic thinking, advocacy and partnership skills.
