The concept of «third place», formulated by R. Oldenburg, can be used as one of the tools for a library transformation. «The third place» is a multifunctional public space, that provides opportunities for intellectual and cultural communication, creativity, self-development and self-expression, a place where one wants to be and wants to return («the first place» according to this concept is home, «the second place» – work or study). The purpose of this article is to consider the concept of «the third place» in the context of its realization in the library and information sphere in Tumen (Russia). Various relevant documents regulating the work of libraries (first of all – public libraries) contain positions confirming the interrelation of library and information activity with the concept of «the third place». Many characteristics of «the third places» («humanitarian», technical and technological, etc.) determine the direction of work of libraries at the modern stage. For the study several similar characteristics were chosen: accessibility, locality; openness to all social categories; the possibility for leisure, entertainment; comfort, ease of interaction. The method of survey with elements of the semantic differential was used. The respondents were the users of the Information and library center for youth (Tyumen, Russia). The research was to identify the degree of severity of these characteristics in library.The results of survey analysis allow the confirmation that the activity of the Information and library center for youth corresponds to the characteristics of «the third place». Librarians work on their integration and development constantly. Also they preserve the major, document-information, content of activity of libraries.The concept of «the third place» is not the only option for the development of each library, but it provides the possibility of using a certain set of conceptual characteristics as a working tool for library and information activity.

The article focuses on museums’ activity that reaches beyond the walls of their premises in the context of a concept of the so-called third place. The third place – as a gathering place which is neither one’s home, i.e. first place, nor workplace, i.e. second place – was described by an American sociologist Ray Oldenburg in 1999 in his book The Great Good Place: Cafes, Coffee Shops, Bookstores, Bars, Hair Salons, and Other Hangouts at the Heart of a Community. Three study cases have been used in the article: Museum Forum (project carried out by the National Museum in Kraków), Bródno Sculpture Park (project co-conducted by the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw), and the method of work implemented by the Ethnographic Museum in Kraków, including in particular the project Dzikie Planty (Wild “Planty” Park). I discuss assumptions the projects have been based on, how they fit in an overall strategy of the museums, and reasons why they have been undertaken. Finally, I wonder whether having been conducted in a fully accessible public space and conducive to users’ interaction make it justified to categorise them as the third places in the meaning given by Oldenburg. Although Oldenburg’s concept has been regarded by museum theorists as not applicable to museums, I have come to the conclusion that projects conducted by museums in a non-committal context of an open space meet the conditions the third places do.

The routine which is carried out between home and the workplace, school or campus every day could trigger stress which caused by the burden of thoughts and workloads. This could also make the individual traits get higher and reduce social interactions because of their respective activities. Therefore, the third place is present as a neutral public space to be able to accommodate the need for social interaction to exchange ideas, release the burden of thoughts and also emphasize the tightness of activities in schools, campus, workplace, etc without feeling awkward for doing interaction among people who have different backgrounds. These problems will be answered through architectural product as a space for education and creativity which is equipped with playing facilities, gatherings, and also leisure facilities to maintain the quality of individual’s life. Kemang, South Jakarta, is selected as the area for designing a third place because Kemang is close to housing complex, office buildings, and schools. In addition, Kemang is also a trajectory for many people who travel from home to workplace, school or campus and vice versa. The program will raise art and sports as the design theme which will be supported by some supporting programs which are still related to the design theme as the answer of the problems and to strengthen the identity of Kemang. Moreover, art and sports are close to third place. This project will be designed by John Zeisel’s re-image method and will be supported by Erica M. Bartels’s transparency theory by giving priority to the permeable as part of the design concept and also paying attention to the existing factors of authenticity. AbstrakRutinitas yang dilakukan antara rumah dan tempat kerja, sekolah atau kampus hampir setiap hari dapat memicu stres dan penat akibat beban pikiran dan juga beban kerja. Hal ini juga dapat menjadikan sifat individualisme semakin tinggi dan berkurangnya interaksi sosial antar individu dikarenakan kesibukan masing – masing. Oleh karena itu, ruang ketiga hadir sebagai ruang publik yang bersifat netral agar mampu mewadahi dan menjawab kebutuhan akan interaksi sosial untuk bertukar pikiran, melepas beban pikiran dan juga stres akibat padatnya aktivitas di sekolah, kampus, tempat kerja, dan lain-lain tanpa merasa canggung untuk berinteraksi meskipun berbeda latar belakang. Permasalahan ini akan dijawab melalui produk arsitektur berupa penciptaan wadah untuk edukasi dan kreativitas yang dilengkapi dengan sarana bermain, berkumpul, dan juga bersantai guna menjaga kualitas hidup individu. Kawasan Kemang, Jakarta Selatan, dipilih sebagai kawasan untuk perancangan ruang ketiga karena Kemang merupakan kawasan yang dekat dengan perumahan, perkantoran, dan sekolah. Selain itu, Kemang juga menjadi lintasan banyak orang bepergian dari rumah ke tempat kerja, sekolah, atau kampus dan sebaliknya. Program akan mengangkat tema seputar seni dan olahraga yang kemudian akan didukung dengan beberapa program penunjang yang masih berkaitan dengan tema tersebut sebagai bentuk jawaban dari permasalahan dan pengangkatan identitas kawasan Kemang. Selain karena hal tersebut, seni dan olahraga juga memiliki keterkaitan yang cukup erat dengan ruang ketiga. Proyek ini akan dirancangan menggunakan metode re-image oleh John Zeisel yang kemudian akan didukung dengan teori transparency oleh Erica M.Bartels dengan mengutamakan sifat mudah ditembus sebagai bagian dari konsep perancangan dan juga memperhatikan faktor kesejaman yang ada.

Bulungan Area, South Jakarta is a very busy area that is always crowd with young people everyday. There are commercial buildings and schools which are a source of crowd in Bulungan area. At night, Beef Curry Rice at Junction (Gultik) become one of the strong characters who create crowds in Bulungan area. Bulungan Youth Arena (GRB) has the potential to become a Third Place, but the existing GRB’s design does not accommodate the requirement to become a third place for young people now. The layout of GRB’s public space makes an exclusive impression because GRB seems to accommodate only arts and sports youth activities. Redesign GRB needs to be done to become the Third Place that has the characteristics of the times and young people from different circle can interact comfortably. The use of the redesign concept is used with the aim of preserving the old memory of GRB, because GRB is a historic building as the first Youth Arena in Indonesia and has a strong relationship with the community that has existed since the 80s, the community is Kelompok Penyanyi Jalanan (KPJ). Performing arts activities, the existence of cafes, relocation of Beef Curry Rice at Junction (gultik) into the site will be inviting more people to come in . The existence of a grand ramp  make circulation be easier and interesting space experiences are expected to increase the interest of young people in exploring GRB.  Keywords:  Beef Curry Rice, Bulungan Youth Arena; Redesign AbstrakKawasan Bulungan, Jakarta Selatan merupakan kawasan yang sangat ramai dan dipenuhi oleh anak muda setiap harinya. Keberadaan bangunan-bangunan komersial dan sekolah menjadi sumber keramaian di kawasan Bulungan. Pada malam hari, pedagang Gulai Tikungan menjadi salah satu karakter kuat yang menjadi pemikat keramaian di kawasan ini dan kawasan ini dapat menjadi sebuah Third Place bagi masyarakat. Gelanggang Remaja Bulungan (GRB) memiliki potensi dijadikan sebuah Third Place, tetapi desain eksisting GRB kurang mewadahi kebutuhan untuk menjadi third place bagi anak-anak muda saat ini. Tata letak bangunan dan ruang publiknya membuat kesan ekslusif karena seolah hanya mewadahi aktivitas kelompok remaja tertentu di bidang seni dan olahraga. Redesain GRB perlu dilakukan agar sesuai sebagai Third Place yang memiliki ciri anak muda dari semua kalangan saat ini. Penggunaan konsep redesain digunakan dengan tujuan mempertahankan memori akan bangunan lama, karena GRB merupakan bangunan yang bersejarah sebagai Gelanggang Remaja pertama di Indonesia dan memiliki hubungan kuat dengan komunitas yang sudah ada sejak tahun 80an yakni Kelompok Penyanyi Jalanan (KPJ). Kegiatan pentas seni, keberadaan kafe, relokasi gulai tikungan (gultik) ke dalam tapak akan menjadi pemikat. Sirkulasi yang mudah dengan keberadaaan grand ramp serta pengalaman ruang menarik diharapkan dapat meningkatkan minat anak muda dalam mengeksplor tempat ini.

Community Space

Humans are social creatures who need the presence of others to complete their lives and have a place to do these activities. These needs are then the background for the formation of public space. With the changing times and technology, the need for a public space to do more and more activities. The space is referred to as the Third place by sociologist Ray Oldenburg. La Piazza is one place that can be called a Third place, but the place was closed because it was not going well. The purpose of this design is to reactivate the function of La Piazza as a Third place in Kelapa Gading. La Piazza Third place has a new design that emphasizes the concept of open architecture and architecture for the Third place as well as the concept of forests. so the design of the new building in addition to having spaces that are open to the public and community space, also gives the impression of being open and inviting as well as cool and calm. In this project, some existing structures in the old building were reused, such as basements, connectors to the parking building, connectors to the ivory coconut mall, and structures from the existing northern La Piazza building. There are 3 forest elements applied to buildings, namely water, greenery and sunlight. These 3 things can relax people with a lot of thoughts and stress about work, especially those who work in offices, according to Regent's University London research. Abstrak Manusia adalah makhluk sosial yang membutuhkan kehadiran orang lain untuk melengkapi hidupnya dan memiliki tempat untuk melakukan aktifitas tersebut. Kebutuhan inilah yang kemudian yang menjadi latar belakang terbentuknya ruang publik. Dengan adanya perkembangan jaman dan teknologi, kebutuhan akan sebuah ruang publik untuk melakukan aktivitas semakin banyak. Ruang tersebut disebut sebagai tempat ketiga oleh sosiologis Ray Oldenburg. La Piazza merupakan salah satu tempat yang dapat disebut sebagai tempat ketiga, namun tempat tersebut ditutup karena kurang berjalan dengan baik. Tujuan desain ini untuk mengaktifkan kembali fungsi La Piazza sebagai tempat ketiga di Kelapa Gading. La Piazza Third place memiliki desain yang baru mengutamakan konsep open architecture dan architecture for the Third place juga konsep hutan. sehingga desain pada bangunan baru selain memiliki ruang - ruang yang terbuka untuk umum dan ruang komunitas, juga memberikan kesan terbuka dan mengundang serta sejuk dan tenang. Dalam proyek ini beberapa struktur eksisting pada bangunan lama digunakan kembali, seperti basement, konektor menuju gedung parkir, konektor menuju mall kelapa gading, dan struktur dari eksisting gedung La Piazza bagian utara.  Terdapat 3 elemen hutan yang diterapkan pada bangunan, yaitu air, tanaman hijau dan cahaya matahari. 3 hal tersebut dapat merelaksasi orang yang sedang banyak pikiran dan stress akan pekerjaan khususnya orang - orang yang bekerja di kantoran, menurut penelitian regent's university london.

Reduced public open space due to competition in urban areas has resulted in reduced community gathering activities (third place). Many big cities in Indonesia are aggressively building new parks or revitalizing old parks, like in the city of Jakarta. This is because the population density reaches 15,663 people / km2. The population continues to grow from 4.5 million people (1970) to double that, which is 9.6 million in 2010, while now it has reached 10.4 million people and is estimated to be 11-15 million by 2020-2030. As a result, almost all of the surface of the city has been devoured by buildings and changed the function of its designation Kelapa Gading sub-district with an area of 161.21 ha, this district has several shopping centers whose area exceeds the existing green space, namely, an area of 996,215 m2, through the results of observational studies that have been carried out then a proposed project that can meet the needs of the ivory coconut community for a healthy lifestyle with limited land as a means of sports that can accommodate various groups of people. Not only as a sports facility, but as a recreational facility and container that can accommodate interactions in the ivory coconut community. By looking at the parameters that exist in designing the third space, this design is adjusted to the ivory community's need for public space as the third space. AbstrakBerkurangnya ruang terbuka publik akibat persaingan lahan di perkotaan mengakibatkan berkurangnya aktivitas berkumpul bagi masyarakat (third place). Banyak kota – kota besar di Indonesia yang gencar untuk membangun taman baru atau merevitalisasi taman lama, seperti di Kota Jakarta. Hal ini dikarenakan tingkat kepadatan penduduk yang mencapai 15.663 jiwa/km2. Populasi terus bertambah dari 4.5 juta jiwa (1970) hingga menjadi dua kali lipatnya, yaitu 9.6 juta pada tahun 2010, sedangkan sekarang telah mencapai 10.4 juta orang dan diperkirakan untuk menjadi 11 – 15 juta pada tahun 2020 – 2030 mendatang. Akibatnya hampir seluruh permukaan kota telah habis dimakan bangunan dan berubah fungsi peruntukannya Kecamatan Kelapa gading dengan luasan wilayah 161,21 ha, kecamatan ini memiliki beberapa pusat perbelanjaan yang luasnya melebihi RTH yang ada yaitu, seluas 996.215 m2, melalui hasil studi observasi yang telah dilakukan maka diusulkan proyek yang dapat memenuhi kebutuhan masyarakat kelapa gading akan gaya hidup yang sehat dengan lahan yang terbatas sebagai sarana olahraga yang dapat menampung berbagai kalangan maasyarakat. Tidak hanya sebagai sarana olahraga, tetapi sebagai sarana rekreasi dan wadah yang dapat menampung terjadinya interaksi dalam masyarakat kelapa gading. Dengan melihat parameter yang ada dalam mendesain ruang ketiga maka rancangan ini disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan masyarakat kelapa gading akan ruang publik sebagai ruang ketiga.

By comparing indicators based on theories about the third space usedKeywords:  Hang out; Sports; Sports as Entertainment; Third PlaceAbstrakSejak tahun 2000-an, Tebet menjadi salah satu tempat nongkrong anak muda di Jakarta. Hingga saat ini Tebet semakin berkembang dengan dipenuhi dengan gerai distro dan café-café maupun restoran. Kawasan ini berpotensi sebagai Third Places bagi warga Tebet. Akan tetapi, dengan kurangnya sarana hiburan/rekreasi di Tebet, mampu mengurangi citra dari kawasan Tebet itu sendiri, karena menyebabkan pergerakan pengunjung menjadi semakin cepat.

Third place as a public space in a neutral place, where people can gather and interact. Unlike the first place (home) and the second place (work), the third place allows people to put aside their worries and just enjoy the company and the conversation around them. The third place “holds individual, regular, voluntary, informal meetings and are happily anticipated outside the realm of home and work.”. These spaces promote social justice by enhancing guest status, providing background for grassroots politics, creating public association habits, and offering psychological support to individuals and society. The design methods used in this study are the concept of a metaphor. Second function follows  form. The results of the study produce designs that are expected to meet the needs of the motorcycle community in the area both in design, function and program. AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk menulusuri tentang tempat ketiga, dimana merupakan lingkungan sosial yang terpisah dari dua lingkungan sosial lainnya.

Aim. To identify current trends in hospital eye trauma based on the materials of the specialized ophthalmology department of a round-the-clock hospital. Materials and methods. The analysis of medical records of patients treated in the round-the-clock specialized ophthalmology department of the state medical establishment OKB No. 2 in the period since January 2017-2019. Results. During the analyzed period, 4948 patients were treated, of which 218 patients (5.6%) were identified for nosologies belonging to the category of eye trauma. Men are most often exposed to eye injuries (84%), in addition, in 62% of cases, these are young patients (18-44 years). The structure of eye trauma is almost unchanged: the leading position is occupied by penetrating wounds of the eyeball and contusions, the third place is occupied by burns, through wounds of the eyeball are rare. Conclusions. Given the poor prognosis of the outcome of a severe eyeball injury, it requires the introduction of modern types of microsurgical intervention using endovitreal surgery at the present stage.

Are mystical states essentially ‘everywhere the same’? Though this question is notoriously obscure and difficult to answer, many contemporary writers on mysticism seem to favour an affirmative response to it, for a variety of reasons. First of all, some are impressed by the undeniable similarity in the testimony of mystics from widely divergent backgrounds and cultures; like most readers of mystical literature, they are deeply struck by the degree of apparent consensus between Christian, Hindu, and Buddhist contemplatives, for example. Secondly, there is a commendable desire in recent times to adopt a more positive and open-minded approach to other religions, and to acknowledge the value of their spiritual traditions; consequently, Christian authors today tend to focus on the common elements in Christian and non-Christian spiritualities, downplaying any differences. In the third place, those who wish to defend the cognitive value of mystical experiences on the basis of the ‘universal agreement’ of mystics will naturally maintain that there is a fundamental unanimity behind their different reports.
