Inspiration space
• The space for meaningful experiences that is to say experiences that move us
• The space should open up to the irrational, emotional and chaotic by communicating a diversion of aesthetic experiences.
• This can happen through storytelling or other artistic expressions within all kinds of media, cultural forms and genres.
• The inspiration space should make the user want to move beyond the usual choices and to come back.
• The library space in itself may also be an experience and work as a stage for events and cultural arrangements.
• The inspiration space especially supports realisation (cognition)/experience and innovation.

Learning space
• Space where children, young people and adults can experience and explore the world and thus strengthen their competences and possibilities through free and easy access to information and knowledge
• Learning is seen as a dialogue oriented process that is based on the users’ own experiences and their wishes to define their own learning needs
• Often takes place in informal settings which do not have learning as the goal – learning happens through play, music and many other activities
• Should meet the needs of especially young people for a more experience oriented learning through the development of playful, interactive and social learning methods.
• Learning is strengthened through the use of homework cafes, study places, open courses and experiment areas.
• The learning space especially supports realisation (cognition)/experience and empowerment.

Meeting space
• An open, public space where citizens as a third space between home and work can meet others who are both as themselves and different from themselves
• Arenaes, where you can meet other people with different interests and values and encounter opinions that challenge you through discussions and debate, are necessary
• In the meeting space both non-committal, random encounters can take place through lounge décor with newspapers and café atmosphere as well as more organised meetings
• This can take place both live and on the Internet in chatgroups, blogs or other social media.
• The meeting space especially supports empowerment and engagement

Performative space
• Users can interact with others for inspiration to create new creative expressions in the encounter with art and culture
• Users can get access to tools that support their creative expressions through interactive games and writing-, sound- and video-workshops
• The users can also get support in their creative expressions through workshops with professional artists, designers, multimedia developers etc.
• Can act as a platform for communication by publishing and distributing the work and products of the users and by giving access to stages where users can perform and express themselves.
• The performative space especially supports engagement and innovation.

Adaptive and innovative supporting
spaces • libraries are changing from storing
books to supporting citizens’ needs
• innovation spaces for local communities
Knud Schulz February 2015 30
Knud Schulz February 2015
The strategy for changing
• The need for rethinking the
library
• The need for a fusion
between physical – virtual
• Develop partnerships
• Focus on innovation
• Get new skills into the library
and promote learning in the
organization
• Force users to dismiss the
book as library brand 31

Innovation Strategy
• Citizens are the focal point
• Partnerships promote innovation
• Transverse collaboration yields better results
• Ideas must be tested
• Replicate
• Innovation is branding too
• Idea development and innovation are creative processes
• Innovation requires prioritised resources
• Innovation requires management focus and commitment
• Methodical innovation uses standards
• Seven circles of innovation Knud Schulz February 2015 76
Global innovation model –
faster to change
• Partnership between

Making in Libraries
• Contributes to activities that provide public value by stimulating the development of network, skills and innovation
• Contributes to the libraries' relationship with its local community
• Increases the social value of libraries, as public spaces that bridge between different communities and knowledge domains
• Challenges libraries strategic and managerial capacity for innovation
