Project poster

Kalapuya High School, an alternative school in Eugene, Oregon, has accumulated a collection of books that serve as the school’s library. However, they had no system to inventory the collection, nor was there a method for borrowing or organizing materials. This limited patrons' ability to assess the collection and use the library as a tool. By digitally cataloging the collection, implementing an organizational system for the materials, and by creating a blueprint for a designated library space, access to the collection has been increased and the library can be used as a tool for recreational and academic purposes.
