| Abstract | This study focused on the awareness of Quezon City Public Library librarians on the value of interior decoration of libraries and the interior decoration preferences of children. It utilized a descriptive research design. A total of one hundred reading area users in the three QCPL branches were shown flashcards as s form of survey. The flashcards consists of two designs 1) the traditional design, and 2) the modern design. The data gathered from the use of flashcards revealed that children prefer modern design over traditional design. Aside from the use of flashcards, the researcher also conducted an interview with seven (7) librarians in the three branches of Quezon City Public Library. The Quezon City Public Library branches were Lagro, Cubao, and Novaliches. Based on the interviews, most of the librarians were aware of the value of interior decoration but did not know the exact principles of it. Some librarians, on the other hand, were not aware of the value of interior decoration of libraries but are willing to learn it. The study recommended for the Quezon City Public Library and for other public libraries and schools as well to give consideration in providing not only their reading area but also the entire library with an enjoyable reading experience by means of changing their interior from traditional design to modern design. The LIS professionals should also enrich their knowledge on interior decoration to make their library a better place for reading. |
