The diagram below shows the floor plan of a public library 20 years ago and how it looks now. Summaries the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The pictures below illustrate the development which took place in the Central

Library

between 20 years ago and now.

Overall

, a comparison of the two diagrams reveals a complete transformation in terms of the

library

's pattern. It can be noticed that almost all

books

and facilities have changed. 20 years ago, the northwest corner of the

library

had a place to relax,

whereas

it transformed into an area which provides storytelling events today and children can find fiction

books

there. During the

last

2 decades, the reading room at the southwest corner which had newspapers and magazines was replaced by a computer room. To the west, in the middle corridor, adult fiction

books

changed to all reference

books

. Based on the two photos given, it can be seen that tables and chairs were removed in the centre area of the

library

.

However

, nothing existed there right now. Looking at the east, there used to be a region for children to read but it now becomes a lecture room.

Next,

between the north and south areas of the

library

, the east hallway used to be a part where could be found many adult non-fiction

books

. Right now, it has a reception area and people can help themselves via many self-service machines.

Lastly

, enquiry desks were demolished and a cafe took its place at the southeast nook of the

library

.
