These are some of the signs I’ve taken down (without telling anyone) around my library since I’ve worked here. I think an uncluttered area is nicer, and that fewer good signs is better than lots of signs that no one reads. Read more of my complaining on my website

Delft Public Library March 26, 2008

Jenny Levine, The Shifted Librarian, visited the Delft Public Library which goes by the name DOK. She describes her perceptions of the library @ http://theshiftedlibrarian.com/archives/2008/03/19/visiting-the-most-modern-library-in-the-world.html.  I want to apply so many of the concepts to my school library and cannot wait to share the images with my students.  Below are some of my favorite DOK images.
