[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] Nam-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, is seeing continued visits from residents as the reading culture programs at public small libraries in the district receive positive responses.

According to Nam-gu on the 14th, during the month of July, four small libraries?Wolsan 4-dong Small Library, Daechon-dong Ecological Small Library, Dalmoe Small Library, and Pureungil Small Library?are operating age-specific customized reading culture programs for residents at each library.

First, at Wolsan 4-dong Small Library, a Zero Waste program aimed at adults is gaining great popularity. Participants can learn how to make soap, dishwasher detergent, and solid toothpaste by utilizing resources discarded from households.

At Daechon-dong Ecological Small Library, true to its name, a program titled "First Encounter with Nature Sketch" is underway, where participants create their own works in nature.

After observing various wildflowers such as pink dianthus, hepatica, and fleabane, participants draw basic sketches and complete their works by adding color, expressing their own styles, turning the library into a cultural gathering place in Daechon-dong.

Additionally, Dalmoe Small Library operates a "Reading Cognitive Play" program for seniors, reflecting the area's demographic with many elderly residents, while Pureungil Small Library runs a "Hand-Reading Picture Book Play" program using Naver Band for preschool children to early elementary students, which is receiving great acclaim.
