The renovation and expansion of the Scarsdale Public Library accommodates the shifting needs of the Scarsdale community and improves the library experience, optimizing utilization of the full facility. In light of new developments in technology, trends in library services, and changes in user preferences, the original 1951 building required adaptable spaces in order to fulfill the Library’s mission. In bringing the Library into the 21st Century, the design team incorporated a new “makerspace” for the community and explored options to allow a greater amount of flexibility at all levels of programming: collection size, number of seats and computer stations, and technological infrastructure. Given the village’s reliance on the library for public meeting space, flexible conference and meeting rooms are equipped with retractable walls to accommodate varying group sizes. The addition of a multi-purpose technology center and the reconfiguration of the old fashioned circulation desk into smaller, distributed locations allows for better research opportunities and greater customer contact and service.
