| Abstract: | Abstract The following article describes a literature review on factors that went into the planning for a new circulation/reserves desk at the Livingston Lord Library at Minnesota State University, Moorhead. Many issues have been reported in the literature and must be considered when designing a functional, convenient, and ADA-compliant circulation/reserves desk. The major considerations are: (1) patron traffic; (2) staff work flow; (3) ADA considerations; (4) the functionality of the circulation/reserves desk; (5) ergonomics; and (6) planning for future technology. |
