\nI chose to visit the Idea Store<\/a> in East London’s Chrisp Street Market and was quite surprised by how modern it looked inside \u2013 it was brightly lit with large open spaces, laptop benches, lots of seating areas, and visitors of all ages. Working areas, books, computers, ‘chill out areas’, and learning labs (rooms hired specifically for meetings and training sessions), are all clearly sign posted and well spaced out, offering an alternative ‘library feel’ all within a comfortable learning atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Having walked around the library taking pictures, looking through leaflets and flyers, peeking into learning labs and flicking through some books in their library section, I realised that the Idea Store was definitely the ‘mega library’ of East London. Because the Idea Store has so much going on already, I left feeling slightly overwhelmed and wondered how, if at all, bookleteer<\/a> would fit in to an already thriving library service. However, after some research, I realised that there were two areas that bookleteer could further help the Idea Store, and this was through advertising and user experience eBooks.<\/p>\n

The Idea Store could advertise and promote courses, events, and services through bookleteer by creating mini information eBooks, providing a new and modern way to advertise what\u2019s on offer. Allowing the thousands of people who use the store to create user experience eBooks to map out what they\u2019ve learnt and what they\u2019ll take away from using the Idea Store\u2019s services would help both staff and visitors explore ways of improving services and document their experiences at the same time.<\/p>\n
