- Perception/Awareness of library
- Needs to be a better experience
- Spatial way finding through (physical accessibility)
- More comfortable reading spaces to get lost in your books with less distractions (sensate accessibility)
* As posted the library is quite cluttered with noise, visuals and flow/functionality
- The technology native age puts a lot of stress on their minds, being harder to focus and therefore becoming accidentally more minimal to prioritise what they actually do. By prioritising they might overlook the public library and try find what they are after on the internet (mental accessibility)
*this source is talking about the current kids/teens generation but i find truth in this for myself.

- Other libraries are in different suburbs and on campuses (physical accessibility)
- The experience is not as holistic with the interconnected tech lifestyle (and millennials love the novelty of new tech)
