How to Work With An Architect

A successful building project starts with clear communication between all parties to get the desired results.  This program will look at the important roles of the architect and library administrators when considering a project of any size.   We will offer suggestions on how an administrator can best convey the improvements needed to the architect to result in a successful project.  It will also look at the methodologies and considerations an architect can help maximize your library's visions and benefits from the building project.
