Title	Library media center design considerations for physically disabled students
Subject	School library media centers, library space design, students with physical disabilities
Description	As a result of federal legislation, children with physical disabilities are one of the many groups of children who should not be denied access to the school library. These children have the same information needs as their peers. They want equal access to information in the school library media center. Creating an accessible and functional facility is a real problem in many schools in the United States. There are also problems in designing new school library media centers. Preplanning should take place in creating new facilities. This paper establishes a checklist of considerations for library media center design for physically disabled young people by searching and analyzing research literature of the mid-1970's to the present. The checklist presents the following points that are essential: establishing design planning committee, being knowledgeable of the school philosophy and building standards, developing a timetable for discussion and development of design specifications, examination of blue prints for specifications integration and continued communication between architect and planning committee from the first planning meeting to completion of the library media center building project.
