The pursuit of knowledge has always been seen as the key to a better life, whether from an individual or collective perspective, and the social value of learning manifests itself particularly in the environments in which it takes place. In a time of breathless change, concepts of human education that promise sustainability and a corresponding architecture of learning are needed. Based on the typology of the library, the contributors show how to develop an architecture for a comprehensive concept of education, and how this built environment can support the transformation of knowledge into wisdom matured through experience.
