Key Takeaways

• Academic libraries are increasingly adding multimedia production facilities and other technology- and service-oriented spaces as part ofoverall structural renovations.
• Although such remodeled spaces offer tremendous opportunities tosupport an institution's pedagogical objectives and its faculty's desire for innovative course assignments, how these opportunities can be realized is seldom discussed.

As examples from two institutions show, academic libraries can both spur and support innovation in pedagogy and curriculum by actively linking these innovations with library spaces, technologies, services, and staff members.
