This article offers a framework of discussion based on the redesign and renovation of the existing curriculum materials center at East Carolina University Joyner Library. The curriculum materials center, better known as the Teaching Resources Center (TRC), is housed on the second floor of the four-story academic library. The TRC utilizes more than 17,800 square footage of the academic library. Planning, budgeting, implementation, promotion and assessment are discussed highlighting specific details of value in consideration when redesigning and renovating space in a curriculum materials center.  \nBackground  \nEast Carolina University J. Y. Joyner Library serves as one of two academic libraries for the campus. Located in Greenville, North Carolina, the campus enrolls more than 27,800 students making it the third-largest university and fastest-growing campus in the University of North Carolina system for six consecutive years. The university is renowned for its historical beginnings as a teacher training college and continues that proud tradition by educating the highest number of teachers in the state of North Carolina (US Journal of Academics, 2012). In order to better serve the more than 3,000 students enrolled in education programs, the Teaching Resources Center (TRC) originated in 1988 as a curriculum materials center designed to provide specialized resources, materials and services for students enrolled in the teacher education program.  \nThe center provides outreach programs to in-service educators for more than 38 eastern North Carolina school systems. After multiple relocations ofthe center within the current library facility, the TRC moved to its current location on second floor of the academic library in 2001 where it provides an invaluable collection and services to its patrons. In August 2008 as part of an overall strategic plan to assess space in the library, a space assessment was conducted to project the need for redesign and renovation of the TRC in order to better facilitate and compliment learning. The space assessment addressed the following needs: redesign of staff and student work areas; availability of group study areas; construction of instructional/study areas; renovation of production areas; relocation of collection and redesign of service desk, furniture replacement, collaborative work space, and study areas. The TRC space assessment documented the need for redesign and renovation to configure new physical space to better facilitate and compliment learning experiences for patrons.  \nSpace Needs  \nWith the completion of a space assessment plan, the next step involved the initial planning of a redesign project. Consideration of trends facing today’s students differs significantly from just a decade ago.  \nClassrooms are no longer the only form of learning space as the majority of student learning activity occurs outside the classroom today. Once based solely on individual effort and achievement, performance has shifted to team activities and collaborative learning motivated by social interaction with peers outside of the traditional classroom (Milne, 2006, p. 11.1-11.2). An emphasis is placed on student-led inquiry and collaborative learning requiring libraries to focus on and provide flexible designs and interactive space. This emphasis shifts learning from the facilitation of knowledge discovery in the classroom to the creation of knowledge enabled by shared learning tasks and productivity using technological tools (Sullivan, 2010) . With such a shift, computer and networking technologies are natural components of students’ lives making technology mainstreamed into today’s learning with the Net Generation or Net Gen utilizing mobile phones, netbooks, tablets, iPods, ","cbCaieZ2X2RorE1D","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieZ2X2RorE1D","pdf",534078,11,"English","# Abstract\n# Background\n# Space Needs\n## Learning trends\n## Net Generation and technology\n# Areas of Learning Space Transformation Impact","[{\"question\":\"What is the main goal of redesigning space in a curriculum materials center?\",\"answer\":\"To transform physical space so it facilitates and complements learning, aligning the center’s environment with evolving student learning needs.\"},{\"question\":\"How did the Teaching Resources Center (TRC) originate and where is it located?\",\"answer\":\"The TRC began in 1988 as a curriculum materials center for teacher education programs and later moved to its current second-floor location in 2001.\"},{\"question\":\"What prompted the TRC space redesign and renovation?\",\"answer\":\"A space assessment conducted in August 2008 to project the need for redesign and renovation, addressing staffing and student work areas, study areas, instructional spaces, production areas, collection relocation, and service desk redesign.\"}]","Transforming Space in the Curriculum Materials Center - Articles - read online | PDF",1792093118,28]
