Anderson, Herbert A. – American School and University, 1976
Illumination levels should vary throughout a school, and new lower-wattage lamps can help cut energy costs. (Author)
Descriptors: Costs, Electrical Systems, Elementary Secondary Education, Energy Conservation
Murphy, Peter – American School & University, 1997
Details the dramatic changes in school lighting. Describes how lighting will be more closely integrated into the "smart" school building of tomorrow and how lighting systems will evolve with schools as technology changes. Claims that direct/indirect lighting systems will serve computer users as well as reduce energy and maintenance costs. (RJM)
