Community libraries contribute to spreading a reading culture.

Every morning, Bui Thi Minh Anh, a 9th-grade student at Ly Tu Trong Secondary School, regularly visits the community library in her neighborhood to read. With its rich collection of books, convenient location near her home, and the presence of many fellow readers her age, the library has provided Minh Anh with many enriching experiences, joys, and valuable knowledge.

I'm so happy that a library has opened here. Normally, if I want to read a book, I have to go to the provincial library, which is quite far away. With this library, I come more often, read many good books, chat with friends, and feel more confident in my communication skills.
Minh Anh shared.

This community library was built with contributions from residents and social organizations in residential area No. 7, with a total cost of 50 million VND. With an area of nearly 80m², the library is designed as an open space, providing free service to all ages at any time of day.

Currently, the library has over 300 books covering various fields such as science, social life, history, politics , comics, newspapers, and magazines. The book and comic sections are arranged scientifically, vividly, and in an accessible and friendly manner for all readers.

In just under two months since its opening, this place has quickly become a favorite destination for people of all ages, from young children to the elderly, contributing to raising public awareness, promoting a healthy lifestyle, and creating a shared space that strengthens community bonds.

For elderly people like us, coming here to read aloud to each other, socialize, and learn more is very meaningful. This small act brings great joy to the elderly, and I'm present here every single day.
Ms. Dam Thi Nu, residing in residential group number 7, Cam Duong ward, expressed her opinion.

Sharing the same sentiment, Ms. Pham Thi Hang said: “The consensus of the people has contributed to creating this miracle. Hopefully, the library will always be updated, with more attractive books to appeal to children, and adults can also update news and enhance their knowledge.”

The Cam Duong ward community library has over 300 books covering various fields to serve the local people.

In the context of rapidly developing digital technology , this small but meaningful community library model demonstrates its widespread impact and positive effectiveness in encouraging reading habits, serving as a cultural highlight and helping to enhance the spiritual life of local people.

Hopefully, community library models like this will be increasingly replicated, so that reading culture becomes an indispensable part of modern life, a solid foundation for knowledge development and community cohesion.
