Designing and building new or renovated space is time consuming and requires politically sensitive discussions concerning a number of both long-term and immediate planning issues. The Medical Library Association's fourth annual survey of library building projects identified ten health sciences libraries that are planning, expanding, or constructing new facilities. Two projects are in predesign stages, four represent new construction, and four involve renovations to existing libraries. The Texas Medical Association Library, the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre Library, and the Northwestern University Galter Health Sciences Library illustrate how these libraries are being designed for the future and take into account areas of change produced by new information technologies, curricular trends, and new ways to deliver library services.
设计和建造新的或翻新的空间既耗时，又需要就一系列长期和近期规划问题进行政治上敏感的讨论。医学图书馆协会对图书馆建设项目的第四次年度调查确定了十家正在规划、扩建或建造新设施的健康科学图书馆。两个项目处于预设计阶段，四个是新建项目，四个涉及对现有图书馆的翻新。德克萨斯医学协会图书馆、法赫德国王专科医院和研究中心图书馆以及西北大学高尔特健康科学图书馆说明了这些图书馆是如何为未来进行设计的，以及如何考虑到新信息技术、课程趋势和图书馆服务新提供方式所带来的变化领域。
