It's the best thing I've located so far for specifics on planning new construction or renovating with usability in mind. It's seemingly out of print and costs in the $100 range second hand, for 247 pages, but it's really pretty good. I hope an update is forthcoming! Meanwhile, it's giving me some good ideas -- too bad I'll have to give it back to the owning library soon!!
