PUBLIC LIBRARIES AND THEIR AUDIENCE The creation of the project “Born to read” at the Library of Sabac was inspired by international experiences of providing library services for babies and children up to the age of 3. The project seeks to raise parents’ awareness of the abilities of their children to positively react to sensory experiences produced by reading and storytelling. Workshops are held twice a month on the premises of the Children’s reading room at the Library of Sabac. Apart from fostering children’s love of books and reading, this initiative also gives parents the opportunity to talk to experts from a range of professional fields (paediatricians, psychologists, speech therapists, nutritionists, early years educators…) about issues related to infant and child development, exchange experiences with other parents and get advice.
In this way, the library becomes a meeting point for an important part of the community, recognises and acknowledges the needs of its users, educates them and makes them feel welcome on its premises.
The video features interviews with the librarians of the Children’s department of the Library of Sabac, who designed and set up the project,Dragana Gajić, Marija Vuković and Biljana Bogojević, and the parents of the children who participate in the workshopsSanja Cvejić, Marija Matić and Vesna Knežević.
In 2012, the management of the National Library “Radislav Nikcevic” in Jagodina made the decision to revitalise its network of rural libraries, which were condemned to closure. Seven years later, we have the opportunity to witness one of the most innovative projects on the Serbian library scene: a successful, functional, sustainable and community-oriented network of 16 agricultural libraries has contributed to community development, boosted entrepreneurship among agriculturers, provided educational resources for growing new crops and given the possibility for selling agricultural products through online market on the library website. To sum it up, the library has created opportunities for personal and professional development of its users. This project has won a number of international awards. Its further development is planned.
The video features interviews with Vesna Crnković, director of the National Library“Radislav Nikčević” in Jagodina, and library users Gvozden Dželatović, Ljubisav Miljković and Branislav Milanović.
Storytelling workshops, inspired by Vera Vecanski’s project “It’s story time”, have been held at the Children’s department of the Belgrade City Library for the last five years. They respond to the needs of young, demanding library users. The librarians take advantage of endless possibilities offered by diverse storytelling techniques: from shadow play, through figures on Styrofoam boards, to creating digital videos.The stories and characters that are represented are very carefully selected and aimed at educating, entertaining and engaging children at the library. Children are users, but also co-authors of these stories, which contribute to fostering the relationship among libraries, parents and children.
The video features interviews with Jasna Brkić and Violeta Đorđević, librarians of the Children’s department of the Belgrade City Library, tireless good fairies of storytelling workshops, and Olivera Kolarić and Milica Srećković, mothers of children who participate in workshops.
Here you can watch two digital videos created at Storytelling workshops: “I’ve seen a miracle” and “Jackdow and other birds”.
Bookeaters (the only overindulgence that doesn’t hurt)is an online platform created by the Library of Sabac and dedicated to the youth. Young people are usually seen as a target group whose attentionand interest in cultural programmes are hard to get. Bookeaters are a virtual space where the library meets its users aged from 12 to 20. The topics covered range from literature and reading to a range of themes of interest to young population. The employees of the Library of Sabac are in charge of technical realization and website editing, while numerous local institutions and individuals, from doctors to psychologists, from schools to cultural instutitions, collaborate on their projects. With this project, a couple of years ago, the Library of Sabac made a step towards its young (non)audience in the only logical direction– into the virtual space that they inhabit. This proactive approach brought the library closer to teenage population. Future plans involve greater engagement of young people in the process of editing, creating and delivering new contents.
The video about Bookeaters features interviews with Aleksandra Edrevički-Tomić, Slavica Trkulja, Dragana Živanović and Ana Pavić, librarians of the Library of Sabac, who are in charge of the project, and website users Verica Đapanović, Mihailo Milošević, Lena Vujović, Marko Ribić and Nikola Đukić.
Last fall, the Belgrade City Library opened the makerspace zone at its Children’s department “Neven”, which is dedicated to learning and creative engagement of young population. Makerspace is a modern library concept that has been popular around the world over the last few years. It is an especially designed space, equipped with digital tools and didactic materials, where users acquire new knowledge and skills, experiment and create various products through play and work with the help of modern technologies. This concept contributes to changing the paradigm of library users, who shift from the position of passive recipients of information/knowledge/services to an active role in developing and redesigning library services. Apart from a 3D printer, Tehnoteka of the Belgrade City Library is also equipped with a 3D scanner, 3D pen, Lego education robots WeDo2 and EV3.
The video features interviews with Marjan Marinković, the Belgrade City Library deputy director, the author of the project, Alen Piljak from the association Edulab, which is in charge of the promotion of Lego Education tools for Serbia and Aleksandra Jakovljević, teacher at the primary
The municipal library “Miroslav Antic” in Mokrin is an example of a library that managed to become an important factor in the cultural and social life of its small local community. It is not an overstatement that the librarian Darinka Maljugic, better known in Mokrin as “Daca, the librarian”, is the synonym for this library. As the only employee of the library in Mokrin, she won the Best librarian in Serbia Award for 2012, granted by the Serbian Library Association. In order to promote reading and the role of the library in the cultural life of her town, Darinka organised a range of cultural activities (literary evenings, performances, events) and established cooperation with numerous civil society institutions and organisations (schools, kindergartens, sports associations, church municipalities and a number of other associations). At the library in Mokrin, she set up a drama club and art club, regularly manages the programme of the local cultural-artistic society and participates with children in all the cultural activities that take place in Mokrin, Kikinda and the nearby area.
The video features interviews with Darinka Maljugić, the librarian of the Municipal library “Miroslav Antić” in Mokrin, library users and collaborators on projects and workshops.
Uprava jagodinske Narodne biblioteke „Radislav Nikčević“ donela je 2010. godine odluku da oživi svoju mrežu seoskih biblioteka koje su bile pred zatvaranjem. Sedam godina kasnije svedoci smo jednog od najinovativnijih projekata na srpskoj bibliotečkoj sceni: uspešna, funkcionalna, održiva i zajednici-okrenuta mreža od 16 poljoprivrednih biblioteka dovela je do razvoja lokalne zajednice, preduzetništva među poljoprivrednicima, edukacije o gajenju novih sorti i mogućnosti elektronske prodaje poljoprivrednih proizvoda preko onlajn pijace u okviru sajta biblioteke. Jednom rečju – biblioteka je kreirala mogućnost za lični i profesionalni napredak svojih korisnika. Ovaj projekat dobitnik je brojnih međunarodnih nagrada, a u planu je njegov dalji razvoj.
O projektu govore Vesna Crnković, direktorka Narodne biblioteke „Radislav Nikčević” u Jagodini i korisnici usluga ovog projekta Gvozden Dželatović, Ljubisav Miljković i Branislav Milanović.
Projekat “Rođeni za čitanje” Biblioteke šabačke nastao je po ugledu na međunarodna iskustva u radu biblioteka sa bebama i decom uzrasta do tri godine. Projekat nastoji da kod roditelja jača saznanje o sposobnostima njihovih mališana da pozitivno reaguju na čulna iskustva stvorena čitanjem i pričanjem priča. Radionice se održavaju u prostoru Dečje čitaonice Biblioteke šabačke dva puta mesečno, a osim razvijanja ljubavi prema knjigama i čitanju budućih korisnika biblioteke, roditeljima se pruža prilika da sa stručnjacima raznih profila (pedijatri, psiholozi, logopedi, nutricionisti, vaspitači…) razgovaraju o pitanjima iz oblasti razvoja beba i male dece, da razmene svoja iskustva s drugim roditeljima i dobiju savete. Biblioteka na ovaj način postaje toplo mesto susreta važnog dela svoje zajednice, prepoznaje i uvažava potrebe svojih korisnika, edukuje ih i čini da se u prostoru biblioteke osećaju dobrodošlima.
O projektu govore bibliotekari Dečjeg odeljenja Biblioteke šabačke, koji su autori i realizatori projekta: Dragana Gajić, Marija Vuković i Biljana Bogojević, kao i roditelji dece koja učestvuju u radionicama Sanja Cvejić, Marija Matić i Vesna Knežević.
Knjigožderi (jedino preterivanje koje ne škodi) su portal Biblioteke šabačke namenjen mladima, jednom od kolektiva čiju je pažnju teško zadobiti i privući ih ponudi institucija kulture. Knjigožderi su virtuelno mesto susreta biblioteke i njenih korisnika od 12 do 20 godina, koji, osim tema iz oblasti književnosti i čitanja, obiluje i mnoštvom sadržaja koji interesuju ovu uzrastnu populaciju. Tehnička realizacija i uredništvo sajta delo su zaposlenih u Biblioteci šabačkoj, a kao saradnici pojavljuju se brojne lokalne institucije i pojedinci, od lekara i psihologa, do škola i drugih institucija kulture. Biblioteka šabačka je ovim projektom pre par godina napravila iskorak u jedinom logičnom pravcu ka svojoj mladoj (ne)publici – u virtuelni prostor u kom oni obitavaju. Ovaj proaktivan pristup biblioteku je približio tinejdžerskoj populaciji, a planovi za razvoj projekta odnose se na veće angažovanje vršnjaka na uređivanju i plasmanu novih sadržaja.
O Knjigožderima govore Aleksandra Edrevički-Tomić, Slavica Trkulja, Dragana Živanović i Ana Pavić, bibliotekarke Biblioteke šabačke zadužene za ovaj projekat, kao i korisnici sajta Verica Đapanović, Mihailo Milošević, Lena Vujović, Marko Ribić i Nikola Đukić.
Radionice storitelinga održavaju se uz izuzetan uspeh u Dečjem odeljenju Biblioteke grada Beograda već pet godina, a nastale su na osnovu veoma pozitivnog iskustva projekta „Vreme je za priču“ autorke Vere Večanski. Radionice se osmišljaju u skladu sa potrebama malih i zahtevnih korisnika biblioteke. Bibliotekari koriste neiscrpne mogućnosti različitih storiteling tehnika: od pozorišta senki, preko pripovedanja putem figura na stiropor tablama, do kreiranja digitalnih foto filmova. Priče i likovi koji se predstavljaju tokom radionica vrlo su pažljivo birani i imaju za cilj da decu obrazuju, zabave, razgale i angažuju u prostoru biblioteke. Deca su korisnici, ali i ko-autori ovih „pričaonica priča“ koje trajno grade i neguju odnos između biblioteke, roditelja i dece.
O projektu govore Jasna Brkić i Violeta Đorđević, bibliotekarke Dečjeg odeljenja Biblioteke grada Beograda, neumorne dobre vile storiteling radionica, kao i Olivera Kolarić i Milica Srećković, majke dece koja učestvuju u radionicama.

Biblioteka grada Beograda otvorila je ove jeseni u Dečjem odeljenju „Neven“ makerspace zonu namenjenu učenju i kreativnom angažmanu pre svega mlađe populacije. Makerspace je savremeni bibliotečki koncept, prisutan već nekoliko godina u bibliotekama širom sveta, i predstavlja posebno osmišljen i dizajniran prostor, opremljen digitalnim alatima i učilima, u kojem korisnici kroz igru i rad, a uz pomoć savremenih tehnologija, stiču nova znanja i veštine, eksperimentišu i izrađuju različite proizvode. Ovim konceptom dolazi do promene u paradigmi korisnika biblioteke, koji od pasivnog primaoca informacija/znanja/usluga dobija aktivnu ulogu u okviru razvoja i osmišljanja bibliotečkih usluga. Pored 3D štampača, Tehnoteka Biblioteke grada Beograda opremljena je i 3D skenerom i 3D olovkom, kao i Lego Education robotima WeDo2 i EV3.
O projektu govore: Marjan Marinković, pomoćnik direktora Biblioteke grada Beograda, autor ovog projekta, Alen Piljak iz udruženja Edulab koje je nadležno za promociju Lego Education alatki za Srbiju i Aleksandra Jakovljević, učiteljica OŠ „Skadarlija“.
Mesna biblioteka „Miroslav Antić“ u Mokrinu primer je biblioteke koja je uspela da bude važan činilac u kulturnom i društvenom životu svoje nevelike lokalne sredine. Možemo reći da je sinonim za ovu biblioteku knjižničar Darinka Maljugić, poznatija u Mokrinu kao ‘Daca bibliotekarka’, jedini zaposleni ove izuzetne biblioteke, i, ujedno, nosilac laskavog priznanja „Najbolji bibliotekar 2012. godine“ koje dodeljuje Bibliotekrsko društvo Srbije. U cilju promocije čitanja i uloge biblioteke u kulturnom životu sela, Darinka je organizovala različite kulturne aktivnosti (književne večeri, performanse, manifestacije) i uspostavila saradnju sa brojnim institucijama i organizacijama civilnog društva (školama, vrtićima, sportskim društvima, crkvenim opštinama i brojnim drugim udruženjima). Pri biblioteci u Mokrinu, osnovala je dečju dramsku, recitatorsku i likovnu sekciju, uređuje program seoskog kulturno-umetničkog društva i sa decom učestvuje u svim programima koji se dešavaju u Mokrinu, Kikindi i šire.
