One plan we have is to have the bookshelfs inbedded in the walls with a seating inside for students to read in them

This is a very interesting idea, looks very comfortable. We would love to see it in our library. :)

We like this idea, and it looks very comfortable and cozy. We think this idea will work and it might encourage more students to read more books. Great Job keep it up!

may i suggest that if your putting seating areas in the shelves make them bigger so that more than one person may sit in it.

This seating looks not only comfortable, but it has a very contemporary theme to it...basically it looks AWESOME...may I suggest having more of this kind of look all over your library.

This looks very modern and comfortable. Makes it fun to read!

Looks a little claustrophobic to me. It's a cool design, but would people actually use it after the exploratory first time?

TG,

I love this idea, even in the shelves in the middle of the room, if you have any. The concept encourages private reading in an ergonomically comfortable position. I would not encourage the two-person seating in the stacks as that would lead to louder volume in a silent setting. Perhaps you could implement a variety of sizes of this type of seating in other parts of the library.

i think that this is a great concept. i would like to see how you take this design and adapt it to your project.
