What is a Learning Commons?

"A Learning Commons is a vibrant, whole-school approach, presenting exciting opportunites for collaboration among teachers, teacher-librarians and students. . . .The Learning Commons addresses multiple learning styles and learning levels. It creates virtual spaces that are flexible and inviting. It ensures equitable access for all. And the Learning Commons seamlessly integrated technology with working together." Together for Learning: School Libraries and the Emergence of the Learning Commons, p.7.
