Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of North Texas, 1992.

A questionnaire survey was conducted to ascertain the scope and methods used to involve citizens in public library facility planning and design. Because of the paucity of written material on this subject in the literatures of both library science and architecture, this descriptive study was undertaken. The first chapter provides an introduction to the study by laying the foundation of libraries designed for citizens. An extensive literature review which provides the theoretical basis for participation is given in chapter two. Chapter three describes the methodology of the survey which was sent to a purposive sample of public library directors, architects who have designed public libraries, and library building consultants. In chapter four, the results are presented including quotes from the respondents. The findings indicated that the respondents felt that there was merit to citizen participation, but its actual use is limited. Chapter five contains a case study of the Denver Public Library which discusses the many types of citizen involvement, including that of children. Finally, chapter six provides summation and recommendations for further research.Subjects--Topical Terms:
