Ever wanted to graffiti the library? Well at the Hamilton City Council Your City Expo many residents did exactly that, and all with the permission of staff.
Hamiltonians had their chance to have a say on their library of the future during expo at the Meteor Theatre on Saturday, March 29. They wrote their ideas on a scale model of the library made out of wooden blocks.
We asked you what features you wanted at the library, what you wanted more of, what you wanted less of, and generally any ideas you had on how we can make our libraries better and the centre of your communities.
Below is a selection of some of the ideas. If you have any other ideas you want to tell us about, then post a comment and let us know.
• A café
• A techno room
• A room for teens to be loud
• A quiet room with sofas for reading
• Bigger libraries
• More computers
• More books, cds, dvds, magazines, newspapers
• More displays
• More live performances
If you want to see the model, complete with all the comments people made, then pop on down to the Central Library and check it out on Level 2. Ask staff for directions.
