Browse by Subtopic

The Innovative Spaces survey produced 98 instances of special or noteworthy projects being supported in ARL libraries.

In order to assist readers with focused interests, 17 “subtopics” have been assigned that group only those survey responses that relate in whole or in part to that topic. The reports listed below contain survey responses that touch on each of the subtopics.

For readers who would extract information not covered by the subtopics, key word searching can be applied to the Complete Survey Results [PDF].
