Inglenook
K-12 Schools with Fireplaces as a Library Focal Point
An inglenook is an intimate space typically found beside a fireplace. Inglenooks often have built-in seating or benches, providing a comfortable spot for people to gather around the warmth of the fire. Originally inspired by cooking, but over time, they became more functional as spaces for relaxation, reflection, reading and socializing.
Today at the usual hour we examine that state of best practice literature for their safety and sustainability,
The codes, standards and guidelines that track accepted best practice:
ASME
ASME B31.9 – Building Services Piping
ASME B31.8 – Gas Transmission and Distribution Piping Systems
ASTM
ASTM E2726 – Standard Terminology Relating to Chimneys and Ventilation Systems
ASTM E2558 – Standard Test Method for Determining Particulate Matter Emissions from Fires in Wood-Burning Fireplaces
AGA
Natural Gas Transmission & Distribution
Environmental Protection Agency
EPA Emission Standards (for Wood Stoves)
Compliance Requirements for Residential Wood Heaters
ICC
International Building Code: Chapter 21 Masonry
IEEE
NFPA
NFPA 221 Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances
NFPA 10 Standard for Portable Fire Extinguishers
Underwriters Laboratories
UL 127 for factory-built fireplaces
UL 103 for chimney systems

Fireplace Safety
Many accommodations such as dormitories, fraternities and sororities have working fireplaces — wood burning and natural gas. Community spaces such as student unions, libraries and recreation spaces also have fireplaces as a central feature.
The purpose of NFPA 211 is to reduce fire hazards by discovering and promulgating best practice for the safe removal of flue gases, the proper installation of solid fuel-burning appliances, and the correct construction and installation of chimneys, fireplaces, and venting systems. The current 2019 Edition is linked below:
Free Access: NFPA 221 Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances
The 2024 has been released. To guide our inquiry into safety and sustainability concepts for the 2027 Edition we like review the developmental transcripts of previous edition:
Public comment on the First Draft of the 2027 Edition will be received until June 3, 2025. We encourage facility managers to recommend improvements to this standard by setting up a (Free) NFPA account the link below:
Online submission of public input and public comments
We maintain this standard on our periodic Prometheus and Housing colloquia. Consult our CALENDAR for the next online meeting, open to everyone

Infotech 200
INCITS: InterNational Committee for Information Technology Standards | Executive Board
Today we break down the literature for building, maintaining and supporting the computing infrastructure of education communities. We use the term “infotech” gingerly to explain action for a broad span of technologies that encompass enterprise servers and software, wireless and wired networks, campus phone networks, and desktop computers that provide administrative services and career tech video production. The private sector has moved at light speed to respond to the circumstances of the pandemic; so have vertical incumbents evolving their business models to seek conformance revenue in this plasma-hot domain.
In 2023 we began breaking down the topic accordingly:
Infotech 100: Survey of the principal standards developing organizations whose catalogs are incorporated by reference into federal and state legislation. Revision cycles.
Infotech 200: Campus computing facilities for research and education
Infotech 300: Communication networks, wired and unwired at the demarcation point; crucial for defining the responsibilities and boundaries between the service provider and the customer.
Infotech 400: System, middleware and software — Python, Fortran 2018, Apache, Julia, C++ and others
A quick shoutout to our hardworking Billikens, who made it through midterms week. You did it! 🤩
