Abstract

As Wendy Newman says, it looks like there are many different kinds of libraries (public, academic, school, national, medical, special) but really there's just One Big Library with branches all over the world. We cover the theory and practice of the One Big Library, drawing on Steve Coffman, Wendy Newman, Dan Chudnov, Christopher Alexander, and others. We show examples and tools and explain our vision for building the One Big Library.
