BCI Eurobib magazine shelving recently installed at a library in Baltimore County, Maryland.   Here is an excerpt from a recent article published online:

The branch now offers more computers and more seating as well as tutoring rooms and a conference area. It opened briefly Wednesday to give patrons a preview of the renovations and the recently unpacked collection of nearly 200,000 items.

“They only added 1,600 square feet, but the redesign makes it all seem much bigger,” said Baltimore County Executive James T. Smith Jr., a newcomer to the Cockeysville area who promised to make good use of the library.

Using input from neighborhood youth, the library decided to use a beach theme for its teen corner, but the décor will rotate displays of student art.

The children’s area, with its wall of windows at the front of the building, is designed for young children, officials said. The room also features a large puppet stage, a computer station equipped with educational games in English and Spanish, and its own check-out desk.
