Elizabeth Anderson and Karen Fishel spent the week of May 4-8 in Washington DC developing sign standards for the DC Public Library system. Standards will address the six new contemporary libraries, the six historic libraries and the many libraries in between. The week was filled with architectural work sessions, site visits and several staff and community meetings. In the photos above:
