The spatial arrangement of the Pati Regency Public Library has not fully paid attention to the principles of library spatial planning, so that in the future it needs to be improved. This research was conducted using a descriptive method with the aim of analyzing the spatial zoning of the Pati Regency Public Library, as well as analyzing the room layout of the Pati Regency Public Library, based on the principles of library spatial arrangement according to Lasa Hs (2007: 202) and analyzing the amount of furniture based on neufert. The results of the study stated that there were four zoning categories, namely the book area, service area, reading area, and other supporting areas. According to the results of observations made at the Pati Regency Public Library, regarding the condition of the Pati Regency Library facilities and infrastructure, as well as their spatial planning, most of them have fulfilled the principles of good spatial planning, but some still need to be repaired or increased to meet the needs of librarians and users. . Spatial planning that is already good includes rooms that require concentration that have been separated, spaces that are public services have been placed in strategic locations, library furniture has been arranged in straight lines and the width of the corridors is up to standard, but among them there are still things that need to be repaired or increased , namely the amount of furniture is partly not according to the Neufert standard, the circulation distance between the bookshelves is still narrow, not according to the standard, and the placement of rooms with almost the same tasks, some of them have not been placed close together.
