The Book Mountain is a building with a mission: to encourage a town populated by the least enthusiastic readers in the Netherlands to switch off their televisions and start reading books again. This biography of the Book Mountain paints a picture of the town of Spijkenisse and the political and social contexts in which such buildings are realized. The story also examines the role of the modern library, the essence of a Ville Nouvelle and the search for an alternative for identification - and whether or not this should be done through historicizing architecture. The often contradictory motives of the protagonists and the context of the project are described in a catchy, straightforward style, befitting Spijkenisse, by former Volkskrant newspaper editor Nicoline Baartman. The story is illustrated with photographs by Marcel Veldman and informative graphics by MVRDV. Book Mountain Spijkenisse. "Biography of a building" is the story of an architect with a vision, a revolutionary councillor, the widow of a veterinarian, an artsy library director and a visionary hero from India who saves the town. It is a fascinating portrayal of life and customs in a new polder town.

En présence des livres, que vit-on ? On se cache... on se retire dans une intimité avec soi-même... on drague... on s'exerce au gai savoir en groupe, puisque les médiathèques d'aujourd'hui sont traversées par le concept de troisième lieu - un lieu qui serait entre l'univers domestique et l'institution - et par les méthodes d'acquisition des connaissances centrées sur un thème et pratiquées en groupe. Dans ce livre, six écrivains croisent leur regard avec six " fabricants " d'espaces et mettent à la question les six bibliothèques/médiathèques construites par l'architecte Pierre Riboulet bien avant qu'émerge ce concept de troisième lieu, construites par un homme qui vénérait les livres et le savoir, et entendait le signifier dans l'urbain. Sous l'œil croisé des écrivains et des " fabricants ", cela donne des récits singuliers, qui éclairent la compréhension de l'architecture et sa valeur d'usage. Les écrivains : Jean-Christophe Bailly, Pierre Bergounioux, Olivier Carrérot-Fournier, Michel Crépu, Mathieu Riboulet, Olivia Rosenthal. Parmi les " fabricants d'espace " : les architectes Rémy Butler, Emmanuelle Colboc, Bruno Huerre, Carme Pigem (agence catalane RCR), Adeline Rispal (également scénographe), Isabelle Crosnier (également programmiste), Daniel Le Goff (directeur de la médiathèque de Limoges). Ce livre a été conçu par l'association des amis de Pierre Riboulet, qui pratique depuis dix ans au travers de colloques un questionnement original de l'architecture. Il est illustré par des dessins originaux de Pierre Riboulet et par les photographies de Marie-Claire Bordaz, édité par les productions du Effa. La sortie du livre est prevue pour Janvier 2017 et nous souhaiterions le présenter à la maison de l'architecture en organisant un débat sur le thème du troisième lieu, entre un ou des architectes (à definir) et un écrivain (nous avons plus particulièrement préssenti Olivia Rosenthal).

Libraries and learning resource centres, second edition, examines trends in library design and discusses issues for architecture and library professionals involved in the design and management of libraries. Using case studies of recently constructed libraries from Seattle to Alexandria and Kyoto, the book explores the evolution of the library building - public, academic and professional. This book provides a guide to addressing key design issues surrounding the changing ways in which libraries are used, such as the digitization of knowledge and the impact of new technologies on reading and library practice. A library's design must also fulfill the necessity of storing information in a variety of forms and making it available in intellectually stimulating and user friendly surroundings. Libraries and learning resource centres provides a thorough examination of the changing needs of the library, its altered social role and its appeal to new users, and gives practical guidance on catering for these needs.
