3. Melville Library Departmental Moves

4. Space Utilization  Adjust space to route user flow through single service area  Move employees closer to necessary technology and/or public areas  Relocating staff / co-location of services  Create one centralized service area in the Melville Library that encompasses public service operations

5. Guiding Principles 1st floor of Melville should be devoted to user services (no private offices or technical services), and not collections. Make use of Galleria space on 1st floor as part of overall plan to create welcoming, useful, multifunctional space for users, events Prime space (such as 2nd floor NRR map cabinets by north-facing windows) should be repurposed for student/faculty seating. Devote entire upper floor of NRR or significant section of floor to quiet study. This may be accomplished when some offices/depts. on periphery of building move out after Union Building renovation.

6. Collection Strategy and Management Move Melville Interlibrary Loan operation from Resource Management area to the Circulation area on the third floor Logical combination of two operations with similar objectives: getting requested resources to user Higher visibility for ILL and easier for users to find it Users could pick up and return borrowed items during evening and weekend library hours Cross-training opportunities for more efficient staff use in both public and operational services

7. First Floor Items 1st floor CRR: Move Microforms collection off of first floor to an upper floor, possibly 2nd floor in the area currently used for government documents, after major weeding project. This will open up CRR space for people, not collections 1st floor CRR: Move academic journals to 3rd floor stacks area or storage area; keep recreational reading in CRR "reading area“ Classroom B furniture replacement Other 1st floor: Former ILL office should be converted to ______?
