A couple of months ago two Dutch library organizations started to work together, developing the most seductive library of The Netherlands; The Ideal Library. The network of Overijssel Libraries and Probiblio want to adapt the principles of retail to maintain clients of the libraries and to obtain new clients. By working on a more retail based way presenting the assortment like a retail establishment uses to do.


The most important development in this traject is the new system of booking shelves, which has been redeveloped. The books are now presented in a more frontal way. Furthermore throughout the whole area you can see books being presented in an attractive way on the display tables. The desired dynamics will be guaranteed by the personell of the library in Zwolle, which will be trained on presentation techniques.
