Nighttime Opening, Environmental Improvements, and Enriched Reading Culture Events
The Library Shines as a Vibrant Local Cultural Space

The Sacheon City Library in Gyeongnam is establishing itself as a cultural haven for citizens, receiving praise as a "library where people want to stay."

This is because the city library has actively incorporated user feedback, extending its operating hours and installing noise-blocking partitions to improve the environment, thereby transforming into a more comfortable cultural space for citizens to enjoy.

In addition, a variety of programs?such as family activities for those with children, adult reading groups, and author lectures?are receiving enthusiastic responses from the public. Through diverse monthly reading and cultural events, the city library is becoming more than just a place to read books; it is establishing itself as a central hub of local culture.

I can read books, and there are many events, so it's a place where I want to stay for a long time." The Sacheon City Library has also achieved remarkable results as it marks its first anniversary.

Over the past year, the library has recorded a cumulative total of about 210,000 visitors and 145,000 books borrowed, demonstrating a high rate of use by citizens.
