Global Perspectives on School Libraries: For years, many schools have created spacious rooms that contain thousands of books and other physical materials to support reading programs, aid research projects, and expand the curriculum. Yet information seekers today have less need to visit a physical library to meet their needs. Many school leaders are asking, Why does a school need a physical library when students can readily access information using a laptop, a tablet computer, or a mobile phone?

Can these large, expensive spaces in our schools be used for other purposes that will produce greater education benefits? When building a new school, should we ask whether it even needs a library?

The reality is that today's best school libraries are not just surviving but thriving in this new information environment by repurposing their physical spaces to adapt to the digital age. Here are the major needs that these libraries are meeting. Students still want to meet and learn in physical environments. Check any shopping mall, coffee shop, or teen center.

Online bookstores have not killed the physical bookstore. But like bookstores, the school library needs to become a high-touch environment in a high-tech world. Comfort and appearance are increasingly important. Upholstered seating, flexible furniture arrangements, and attention to aesthetics in lighting and colors help make the library a place where students and staff want to be.

The modern library is a place for teams to work together, formally and informally. For schools that have no other spaces for recreation and play, such as a student commons or a playground, the library can provide such spaces, especially before and after school.

Adapting to Current Needs

A successful library adopts a liberal definition of what constitutes a constructive activity, allowing users to engage in gaming and research on topics of personal interest. Such a library may be the only place at school where some students feel at home. The school library can become a learning commons by encouraging a wider scope of use by more school personnel for tutoring, vocational education, gifted and talented services, and a raft of instructional support services.

Technology integration specialists' offices and workspaces should be a part of the library so that users can readily collaborate with them and access their expertise.
