__**Sep 15**__ -Started brainstorming the reserach topics, some of my ideas as follows,

1.The public library/Sccot Library @ York university- What is the role of the library nowadays? Since internet is rapidly growing and almost all the information can be found online quickly, is it still worth spending hours and hours of time in the library? What innovations can be made in the library for building a community rather than just a private "reading room" ? What are some of the shortcomings of our scott library on the campus? How to attract more people or even children into this big community?

2. Underground system at York university/Toronto - Shall we extend more underground paths on our campus or in toronto, so people dont have to walk outside in winter, reducing traffic and saving more gas.


 * 3. Spaces in the elevators- How to avoid akward feelings each other and engage more activities?

I think i am doing the first topic, the public library issue. I will probabbly start off @ york's sccot library and investigate each area and people's activites.
