Unlike extant LIS literature, Lee is concerned with the impact of preexisting notions of teens on the design and configuration of teen spaces and the resultant impact on teen behavior and use concerning these spaces. The value of this book lies in three separate areas. First, it introduces the interdisciplinary concept of social control in the built environment to library and information sciences. Second, it makes a significant contribution to LIS literature by providing much-needed research on teens as a user group, the history and current landscape of library services to teens, and teen space design and function. Third, it contributes to the field by linking research with practice. A unique approach to teen services and teen space design, this research study is a timely addition to the LIS literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eShari Lee\u003c\/b\u003e, PhD, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Library and Information Science at St. John's University, USA.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e07 January 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Libraries Unlimited\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9798216191032\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e216\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53344211796108,"sku":"9798216191032","price":121.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/getimage_1e85aa96-70fe-4ade-992d-a352d00ae46f.jpg?v=1788314533","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9798216191032","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
