The images demonstrate the changes that have taken place in a university library since 2005. Generally speaking, the traditional library set-up has experienced a major transformation over the period, with an increased emphasis on automation and privacy. The library has also become more convenient for student use thanks to the introduction of more study desks, both for reading and laptop use.
In 2005, the library was quite traditional, offering a limited range of facilities. The access to to the place was from the bottom, and students could find three study tables neighbored by a librarian's desk—for book borrowing and returning—in the center. While the right-hand side of the entrance, the left-hand wall and the far side were dedicated to bookshelves, the right wall and its bottom corner were used for desks with computers and a library office.
By today, however, the library has been substantially modernized. The study tables and the librarian's desk have given way to a large number of cubicle-like private study desks, emphasizing a focus on privacy. On the left of the entrance, bookshelves have been removed to make room for two groups of automated book-borrowing machines, separated by a partition. Although the bookshelves on the far side of the library have been retained, the computerized section, the library office and the bookshelves on the bottom of the plan have all been supplanted by desks for learners with laptops.
