I meant to post this ages ago from Fast Company Co.Design:

“At the University of Amsterdam, Dutch designers Studio Roelof Mulder and Bureau Ira Koers converted an existing 27,000-square-foot library into a massive study hall — without any visible books — to accommodate the 1,500 to 2,000 students who visit daily.”

A library without books? Gasp! The photographs show a little more minimalism than I usually like, but I think it’s a great display of redirecting focus away from accommodating books and looking toward accommodating people.
