Descrição da organização

Library in Gdynia consists of 21 branches, which are situated in different districts of the city. Oftenly the library may be the only cultural institution in the neighborhood. Depending on the district, where the libraries’ departments are located, our main actions concern groups of people socially and culturally excluded – in terms of not equal access to social and cultural goods, where society is rather poor (in both financial and cultural way, where dominates passiveness among people). Therefore we prepare workshops with local artists and social workers, reading aloud, designing illustrations with kids, lessons how to use book resources, how to search for information in internet and books, English lessons for young and older people – equalizing opportunities and various workshops. It has a great value to us to implement actions that would be important for the community, would respond to their needs and as well would reflect on the social and mental changes, that take place over the years. Our goal is also to adjust our offer to the social reality, which transforms very fast. People, who are supporting us in this actions are: teachers, social workers, artists, students, readers, parents and so on.
