Success Factors

What Makes The Space Successful?

The space is successful because of the diversity of the ways in which students can work in there and the fact that they can easily integrate the technology and make use of their own technology. It brings together a lot of the things they would really like to be able to do in working with the library stock, accessing library systems, learning together and they can even eat and drink.

What Is Innovative About The Design And The Use Of The Space?

The design principles and the mix of flexible space and traditional library very close to where other services are located.

If you can read this text, it means you are not experiencing the Plone design at its best. Plone makes heavy use of CSS, which means it is accessible to any internet browser, but the design needs a standards-compliant browser to look like we intended it. Just so you know ;)
