SREDIŠNJI ODJEL GRADSKE KNJIŽNICE RIJEKA: IZAZOVI RADA NA DVIJE ADRESE (PERSPEKTIVA KORISNIKA I KNJIŽNIČARA).

The City Library of Rijeka has been waiting for more than a decade for the realization of the project of a new central library building, but it has not been built yet. When the statics walls of the library depository had collapsed in April 2015, a way out of the crisis situation was found through the relocation of the Central Department for Adults into two new locations. Fine literature was moved to a new location, while non-fiction and scientific and professional literature remained at the existing location. Considering the fact that this is a unique crisis solution in the library practice, we have examined, after one year of working in the new conditions, the satisfaction of our users with the new organization of the library at different locations, and the offered services. Furthermore, the research has examined the attitudes of the employees towards working in the new conditions. The research analysis has also included the statistical data on the use of the library holdings of the Central Department during the first year of its relocation as compared to the previous years.
