Does this layout include separate quiet and community spaces?

Yes. The Quiet Reading Room and Genealogy Room are separated from the Auditorium and community program areas, so noise from events doesn't spill into the reading zones.

Can I adjust the zones in this floor plan?

Yes! You can resize rooms, move shelving, and relabel zones directly in ArcSite to match your building.

Is ArcSite free to use?

There's a 14-day free trial, plenty of time to test the full toolset before you subscribe.

Library layouts need to balance quiet zones, high-traffic areas, and shelving for different media types, while staying accessible and easy to navigate. In ArcSite, you can zone fiction, reference, and children's areas separately and leave room for community events or future tech expansion.
