The July/August 2005 issue of Educause Review has several articles on learning spaces as well as podcast interviews with several people involved in developing learning spaces.

Also, from this month’s Educause conference is a podcasted interview with Joan Lippincott of CNI. In that interview Lippincott states that designing a learning space is not just putting a computer lab in the library and it’s not just about making technological access to information resources in the library. That’s not enough for today’s students. Today’s students create information products in digital media. Learning spaces bring technology together with the rich resources of libraries but they must do so in the context of the students’ academic work, in ways that help students create digital information projects.
