[Publib] Architects with bad ideas

The recent ramp issue, has prompted me to write.

 

We are at the very early stages of building planning.  Our town selectmen
believe that if the architects have a "library specialty"  they are the
experts and know all about how to create a library.  The last such 'expert'
I dealt with, suggested putting a spiral stair case in the middle of a k-12
school library as the ONLY access to the school's gym.  The drawn picture
with stationary students drawn in, DID look pretty.

 

I do not believe ~my~ experience unique an my selectman's accurate.  So. if
you have a related horror story and want to write me off list. I'm going to
start assembling them.  Names and libraries will be withheld upon request.

 

Thanks!

Su
