Designing for Communities with Communities: Co-designing Public Libraries

公共图书馆是澳大利亚各地社区的重要社会基础设施。该项目通过分析在三个案例研究中引入的共同设计活动的效果，调查如何让社区参与其公共图书馆空间的设计。随着公共图书馆的社会作用继续扩大，将产生关于让社区参与图书馆空间设计和重新设计的新知识。预期成果包括一个在线指南和总体框架，以及确保真正参与和投入的社区参与蓝图。

Public libraries are critical social infrastructure for communities across Australia. This project investigates how to involve community participation in the design of their public library spaces by analysing the efficacy of co-design activities introduced into three case studies. New knowledge will be generated about engaging community participation in the design and re-design of library spaces, as the societal role of public libraries continues to expand. Expected outcomes include an online guide and overarching framework, and blueprints for community participation that ensure genuine engagement and input.
