Measuring the social impact of libraries is an important tool for assessing their effectiveness and justifying the need for support. It is also an important advocacy tool as it provides objective evidence of their value to the community.
Libraries around the world use a variety of approaches to measure the social impact of their activities, including both quantitative and qualitative approaches. The main goal is to demonstrate how libraries impact the community, education, culture, economy and quality of life. This allows us to assess how they contribute to community development, education, inclusion and social cohesion.
On 20 September, at the presentation ‘Sister Libraries: Ukraine - United Kingdom’, a partnership between the libraries of the two countries was announced. This is an important step in building a cultural bridge between Ukraine and the UK.
To ensure that everyone has access to Ukrainian literature outside their home, Svitlana Polunina from Kharkiv initiated a mobile library project in Italy. We talked to Svitlana about her project and found out what the travelling library needs and what Ukrainians read in the land of Dante and Rodari.
