The Library Journal, in conjunction with the Hayward Public Library, will hold the Library Journal Design Institute 2023 next month for library professionals and architects to discuss design and trends in the field.
The Journal has been supporting libraries since it first began 140 years ago, believing that they are integral to communities and that they transform lives in meaningful ways. The Library Journal Design Institute event will bring together librarians, library board members, library city planners, architects, and vendors to discuss how to improve library building and design.
During the think tank event, librarians will be able to converse and brainstorm with architects on how to build, retrofit, and renovate library spaces to provide a better overall experience for library patrons and employees alike. There will be expert-led panels along with interactive, hands-on breakout sessions led by architects that will deal with real-life design scenarios submitted by event attendees.
Design events like this that involve architects may also include graphic design artists that can give their insights into certain aspects of design language and trends.
The library design event will take place on Thursday, September 28, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. It will be held at the Hayward Public Library, which is located at 888 C Street. General admission is $40 per person.
