1. These areas are clear and do not interfere with each other. To be "different inside and outside"; Secondly, separate the external workspace from the internal management area to avoid mixed layout.
2. Efficient traffic organization, no interference, convenient and fast. There are readers and books entrances and exits respectively, which are convenient for book transportation, loading and unloading and fire evacuation.
3. Necessary outdoor venues. Pay attention to outdoor activities, rest and green space.
4. Good orientation and natural ventilation.
5. The site design should adapt to local conditions. Not too scattered, leaving room for future expansion. Don't jam it all.
6. Fully consider and coordinate with the surrounding environment.
Second, the overall layout
1. Centralized
Concentrate the stacks, reading, cashier, catalogue and office management in one building.
Advantages: compact layout, land saving and economical pipe network;
Disadvantages: Poor handling can easily lead to limited natural lighting and ventilation.
2. Decentralized
The stack room, reading room, cashier's journal and editing room are located in several buildings respectively, which is convenient for expansion by stages, but it covers a large area and has many auxiliary areas, and the various parts are not closely related.
mix
Each part of the house is set independently, and the advantages of corridor connection are: clear partition, flexible combination and easy to expand by stages; Disadvantages: There are many corridors and lots of land, which is suitable for the overall layout of large libraries.
Thirdly, the functional composition and spatial organization of library buildings.
Functional components:
1. entrance area: including entrance, storage room, entrance console and indication sign area;
2. Service center area:-Like the catalogue hall and cashier desk of the traditional library, it undertakes information retrieval and provides services.
3. Reading area: an important part of the library needs an open space, which integrates reading, hiding, borrowing and management.
4. Collection area: including: basic stacks, auxiliary stacks, reserve stacks and various special stacks. Be independent and have direct contact. Don't cross public areas or reading areas.
5. Office area: including administrative office and business premises. Business premises include: editing and processing premises, technical services and research premises.
6. Official activities: lecture hall, exhibition hall, bookstore, etc.
7. Technical equipment: air conditioning room and other technical equipment rooms.
8. Living quarters: Some public libraries require the construction of staff canteens. And you must set up independent entrances and exits to form your own area.
Functional relationship:
1. entrance area: it is convenient to contact with other areas, especially for readers to directly reach the service center and reading area.
2. Service center area: Readers should be able to reach all areas directly and conveniently.
3. Public living area: it must be connected with relevant space and have its own independence.
4. Reading area: readers are required to have access to the basic stacks.
5. Book collection area: separate from reading area, convenient for book collection and transportation, requiring separate entrance and exit. Small and medium-sized libraries can be integrated with managers' entrances and exits, and large libraries should set up special books entrances and exits.
6. Technical equipment area: This area is relatively independent, standing in the basement or the top floor.
7. Librarian's work and office: it is necessary to facilitate contact with all districts in the library and facilitate foreign exchanges. Large libraries set up independent entrances and exits.
Four, the library building basic functional requirements
Basic flow of library readers and books
Verb (abbreviation for verb) partition layout
1. Internal and external partitions
Reasonably organize and distinguish the reader's activity route, the staff's work route and the book processing and transportation route, so as to make the streamline simple and clear and avoid cross, entanglement and interference.
Internal area: employee activity area, including library area, office area, internal operation and processing area, etc.
External area: experimental area for readers' activities, including reading area, lecture hall and exhibition hall for public activities, and commercial buildings such as restaurants and bookstores serving readers.
These two fields should be clearly distinguished and easily linked.
2. Quiet zoning
Noise will be generated when buildings are running, such as printing room and typing room. Some people are noisy in use, such as lecture halls and exhibition halls. Some rooms need to be highly quiet, such as the business office and reading area of the editorial department; Newspaper reading and children's reading are more complicated; They need to be arranged separately in order to interfere;
Generally, the zoning method adopts horizontal zoning and vertical zoning.
"Noisy" comes first and "quiet" comes last. The single partition method cannot solve the problem.
Step 3 arrange in layers
First of all, the main floor includes: catalogue hall, general cashier desk, information center, reading room and transportation hub. This floor has frequent services and complicated streamline, which is the focus of traffic processing in the whole library.
Six, the library building layout
1. The reading room is in the front and the stacks are in the back.
The reading room is around and the stacks are in the middle.
The reading room is in the middle and the stacks are around.
The reading room is above and the stacks are below.
5. The stacks are above and the reading room is below.
6. stacks are distributed in the reading room
Seven. Flexibility in the use of library buildings
1. block centralized layout
Foreign libraries tend to be square, rectangular or polygonal. Rectangular is beneficial to use, because the space is compact, easy to separate and save energy, but the depth is too large, which requires artificial lighting and air conditioning facilities.
2. Turn a small space with fixed division into an open and coherent space.
The column network with large bay and large span is adopted to avoid separating large space due to improper layout. In order to meet the needs of area change, the internal space is separated by light sound insulation board walls or bookshelves, and less load-bearing partition walls are used.
3. Turn a small studio into a big studio
In multi-storey building layout, flexibility depends on structural design. In order to strive for greater flexibility, expand the depth and column network and reduce too many columns.
