Description
The Šilainiai Public Library is a department of Kaunas Municipal Vincas Kudirka Public Library. The library operates not only as a traditional district library but also as a community center for the Šilainiai neighborhood in Kaunas City. We organize various events, training activities, lectures, and workshops for people of different age groups. We need an international volunteer to assist in the library's “Children's Space” by organizing educational events, workshops, and game activities for our young readers. The volunteer would also help out the library staff, assisting them with the routine library tasks and management of the library's archival reserves. We also invite the volunteer, according to their ability to teach foreign languages to adults.
