CONTEXT PROPOSAL PROTOTYPES
What is the role of the public library in the new millennium?
Our context for this project was the public library in Ivrea, a small Italian town & former Olivetti's headquarters. Since the late 80's Ivrea witnessed a dramatic change of its social fabric - close down of work places, exodus of young people & an influx of foreign immigration. The project aimed at proposing new library services that would address the mutual concerns with in the community on heritage & multiculturalism. At an early stage we identified that children, often acting as an integration vehicle, function as mediators between various groups. Children as well experience a strong and significant contact with heritage. (with Ana Amorim & Dana Gordon)
