Information and documentation - Qualitative conditions and basic statistics for library buildings -- Space, function and design

ISO/TR 11219:2012 specifies data for the planning of library buildings. It also provides guidance on the selection of technical building equipment for the different functional areas of libraries.
ISO/TR 11219:2012 is applicable to all types of libraries in all countries, but especially to academic and public libraries.

Information et documentation -- Conditions qualitatives et statistiques fondamentales pour bâtiments de bibliothèques -- Espaces, fonctions et conception

Informatika in dokumentacija - Kakovostni pogoji in osnovna statistika za zgradbe knjižnic - Prostor, funkcija in oblikovanje

To tehnično poročilo navaja podatke za načrtovanje zgradb knjižnic. Ponuja tudi napotke za izbiro tehnične opreme za različna funkcionalna območja knjižnic. To tehnično poročilo se uporablja za vse vrste knjižnic v vseh državah, vendar je posebej osredotočeno na javne in univerzitetne knjižnice. Ne vključuje podrobnosti o nacionalnih, regionalnih ali lokalnih predpisih, ki lahko vplivajo na načrtovanje zgradb knjižnic.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
In exceptional circumstances, when a technical

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
In exceptional circumstances, when a technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that
which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for example), it may decide by a
simple majority vote of its participating members to publish a Technical Report. A Technical Report is entirely
informative in nature and does not have to be reviewed until the data it provides are considered to be no
longer valid or useful.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO/TR 11219 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 46, Information and documentation,
