Hi all,
Working on a library project. I am curious to know if 'book stacks' would be considered as a regularly occupied area. The book stacks area has no seats and people use that space to browse for books, which is typically less than 1 hour. So we want to exclude that area and classify it as 'non-regularly occupied'. Has anyone come across this before??
Thank you.

The Regularly Occupied Space Matrix dated April 2015 indicates that book stacks are not regularly occupied and do not need to be included the calculations.
