We have an auditorium, not really a theater, which holds about 100. Limited lighting control, but the house lights do dim all the way down, seats are bolted swivel chairs with retractable writing boards. So it's used for classes, guest lectures, presentations, meetings, heartfelt political debates, panel discussions and film series (video, not film). And possibly 993 other uses .... Ideas?

Happy Friday everyone. We’re beginning to think about strategic planning at our institution and space is big on the agenda. I’ve had a couple faculty express a longing for the library to have an actual theatre which is an intriguing idea to me so I wanted to take a very informal poll – How many of you have a theatre in your library and what is that space used for? I look forward to your responses! Best, -lisa H.
