Los Angeles Public Library's TeenS'cape Takes on the "New Callousness."
Bernier, Anthony
Voice of Youth Advocates, v23 n3 p180-81 Aug 2000
Discusses the Los Angeles Public Library's TeenS'cape, located in the middle of the city's Central Library. This technically sophisticated library space, opened after the 1992 L.A. riots, provides custom furnishings, postmodernist architecture, and equipment and materials specifically catered to the local teens, amid the culture of "anti-youth" attitudes. Each of the six zones that make up TeenS'cape is described. (AEF)
