In this research, more than one plan to distribute the service offices in the library of the faculty of engineering, University of Benghazi were proposed by using Relationship Diagramming method, and they number 12 offices according to the working relationship between these offices and the students’ use of them. The optimal plan was chosen, as we made five plans according to the first method. Plan number three is considered the best among the five. The proposed plans, where the lowest point was given for the calculated distances. All plans are also considered better than the existing plan. There are 12 offices in the library building of the Faculty of Engineering, University of Benghazi, which are frequented by students for the purpose of benefiting from the service provided through them. There are also relationships between these offices according to the nature of their work.
