Funktsinal''no-planirovochnye modeli mediatsentrov na primere mediateki [Functional models of media centers on the example of media libraries]

Abstract

Media centers connect the user with the urban environment that surrounds him. In the 20th century, the development of information technologies resulted in the emergence of media centers. They include media libraries, modern museum centers, media companies. Further development of the media centers requires the analysis of their architecture.The purpose of this work is to analyze the grouping of functional and planning elements of media centers on the example of a media library as the most common and widely available type of medical centers. The functional structure of twenty different media libraries is examined based on the foreign experience.Three functional and planning models of media libraries are proposed, namely: integrated, built-in and cluster. The analysis of their planning elements and functional zones is given herein.
