I’m an art educator currently using library as my playground.

What’s a library to you?

Library for me is the best place to work. It’s an inclusive space that has more in store for people than they think.

What’s the single most essential thing you need in your everyday work?

The single most essential thing I need in my everyday work is a busy schedule.

What was the most memorable experience you ever had in a library?

My mum used to work in a library that’s located in a historic palace. As a girl I loved running around library shelves pretending that I’m a princess.

The old, the new and the unknown

In the course of the pandemic, newly created and existing offers were made accessible to the library customers. But one of the biggest challenges remains making these offers known.

Is there a recipe for a successful digital library?
Having our users at heart in ever-changing times

Our current reality will shape the way libraries work in the future, but no matter which way we go, as long as we keep our users in mind, it will be thea right way.
