1 LINKING LIBRARY SPACES TO USERS NEEDS AND PREFERENCES Linda C. Butson, Hannah F. Norton, Michele R. Tennant*, Cecilia Botero Health Science Center Libraries *and UF Genetics Institute University of Florida
2 Background The 36-year old Health Science Center Library is the only library on campus that has not undergone significant renovations.
3 Background Given support from our library dean, the opportunity arose to begin planning for renovation of our space. Any renovation requires substantial input from our users about their needs and preferences in order to remain a space that is well-used.
4 Goals To identify user needs and the characteristics of library spaces which they value. To assess the library space needs and preferences of our students, faculty, and staff in order to inform HSCL remodeling plans and improve library services.
5 Methods An IRB-approved study design consisting of 2 phases: Phase 1: Fall 2010 Electronic survey distributed to all Health Science Center (HSC) students, faculty, and staff 320 responses received Phase 2: Spring Fall 2011 Focus groups of HSC students, faculty, and staff 7 focus groups conducted with a total of 23 participants
6 Survey 8-question survey created in SurveyMonkey Distributed via listservs for HSC colleges and departments Prominent link on HSC Library homepage Demographic questions and 3 open-ended questions: What do you like about the HSC Library s current space? What is missing in the HSC Library s current space? What would you like to see in an ideal HSC Library space?
7 Survey Results: Demographics Responses by College 3% Responses by Status 2% 9% 9% 19% 18% 16% 25% 8% 11% n = % Dentistry (9%) Medicine (16%) Nursing (11%) Pharmacy (27%) Public Health and Health Professions (25%) Veterinary Medicine (9%) Other (3%) 53% Undergraduate Student (18%) Graduate Student (53%) Staff or Resident (8%) Faculty (19%) Other (2%)
8 Survey Results: Library Usage How often do you come to HSC Library? How often do you use the HSC Library s resources from outside of the library? 8% 14% 7% 14% 25% 22% 16% 39% 17% 38% Every day (14%) Every week (39%) Every month (17%) Less than once a month (23%) Never (8%) n = 302 Every day (25%) Every week (38%) Every month (16%) Less than once a month (14%) Never (7%) n = 303
9 Survey Results: Open-ended questions Study space - general Individual study space Group study space Computers & technology Copiers & printers Lighting & windows Ambience Furniture Study & meeting rooms What do you like about the HSC Library's current space? What is missing in the HSC Library's current space? What would you like to see in an ideal HSC Library space? Space to relax Quiet & sound insulation Services & collections Miscellaneous Number of Responses Responses were assigned to multiple categories where appropriate. n = 200
10 Our Response So Far Created 7 new study rooms from storage and unused office space painted and equipped with whiteboards. Increased number of public computers. Purchased new tables and chairs.
11 What We ve Done So Far Consolidated our print journal collection to one floor (third floor), moved our monograph collection to the second floor, opened up the first floor for study space. Before
12 What We ve Done So Far During After
13 Focus Groups Recruitment: All participation was voluntary. Notices were posted in the library and distributed on listservs. Library staff invited patrons at the library directly prior to focus groups. Three librarians facilitated the sessions. Participants included graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, library staff and student assistants, non-uf users. A standard list of questions was used to direct the conversation during each focus group session.
14 Focus Group Themes
15 Theme: Study spaces Our patrons appreciate the space for group study on our first floor, a space to talk. Quiet is highly valued in our library, and our patrons understand that the third floor is designated for quiet, individual study. Ideal learning environment has to be a mixture you have to have some loud spaces like the ground floor and you have to have quiet areas in the same location so you can move around like basically how it is here.
16 Theme: Computers & technology Our computers are a highly valued resource. More computers for groups and individuals would be useful. We need to be sure there are enough power outlets throughout our space. we use this library for the big screens to look at the, the anatomy pictures or things like that
17 Theme: Ambience and comfort Patrons described our space as being: bright, comfortable, clean, modern. They also described it as: not appealing on the eyes, old, too much white, not inviting. Suggested improvements include: plants, art on the walls, glass, wood, reading and floor lamps, carpeting, rugs, more homey feel, painting the walls soft colors there was a very institutional prison-like quality about the library, and I think you re gradually breaking that down
18 Theme: Furniture The library needs more comfortable seating, particularly lounge-style seating. Big tables are preferred to some of the smaller ones. [my ideal learning environment has] comfortable chairs and places where you can just kind of relax while you study
19 Theme: Study and meeting rooms More study rooms, particularly group study rooms would be appreciated. Study rooms could be bigger and all contain computers. Study rooms are not fully sound-proof. more group study rooms are needed because a lot of times I would come in and you wouldn t have any study rooms available.
20 Lessons Learned Pizza may not be an adequate inducement for participation in a focus group. Users did not know about many existing services and facilities. The library needs more marketing of what we do offer. In addition to our primary Health Science Center population, undergrads and those from outside UF use and value our facility.
21 Future Activities Continue focus groups and recruit more participants through colleges Recruit faculty participation Plan for marketing of facilities and services Look at lighting, art and color in the library Visit and review other libraries space arrangements Identify furniture to be purchased when money is available Give users the opportunity to draw their ideal library space
