More and more traditional children's libraries are under pressure. Children are experiencing reading in new ways, rapidly changing media habits as well as different play cultures and styles mean that children's libraries need to take action to ensure they remain relevant in the lives of the children they serve. Or as a Danish reports tells us in 2008: The library continues to be one of the most important cultural resources for children in the local communities- but radical changes are necessary if we want to make sure the library upholds its status as a central cultural institution for children.
Suggested topics for this session include, but are not limited to, the following:
In this two hours session we will present 4-5 papers (case-studies, best practices and so on) and you are invited to submit a proposal for this session.
