About the project

LIBRARY

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

A library is a collection of sources of information and similar resources made accessible to a specific community/school for reference or borrowing. It provides physical or digital access to material, a physical building or room, a virtual space, or both. Learners are at the centre of learning in the library. In Nepal, there is not enough training organized for teachers and children on how to use a library. So through this camp, volunteers will organize teaching and learning activities through the use of library resources. It’s a very fun and creative way of learning. Work camps will be organized with the cooperation of local community schools under VIN’s children’s development program and working together with local teachers/children/ villagers. The schools where we are conducting camps lack a library and other infrastructure facilities. Some schools have some collections, but they are not managed and used well. The rooms are not well painted, and books are not arranged in proper order. Children are not taught the skills of using a library and its importance.
