The Jakarta Post – Jakarta,Indonesia – Reports Jakarta has seen significant growth recently in community libraries, most of which have been initiated by non-government organizations and concerned individuals.
They are usually volunteer-based with sizes varying from solid establishments with vast book and educational toy collections, to small scale libraries with tiny collections in volunteers’ garages.
“We’re holding this event to give exposure to community libraries. They are vital for children’s access to quality reading,” said Mochamad Ariyo Faridh Zidni, a 1001BUKU volunteer, who was in charge in organizing the Olympics.
