Naple Sister Libraries
Why should we take part?
Why should we take part?
Participation in the programme, an active participation of course, means development for each of the cooperating libraries. We learn from each other, exchange ideas and put them into practice. At the same time we improve our English. And besides, we are a group of really friendly people!
(Aleksandra Zawalska-Hawel)
User reaction
The reactions of our users have been very positive. There were congratulations, press and radio interviews. But they also expect something new to happen next. All initiatives taken with Sister Libraries are being adopted very well by our community. Our users participate in shared cultural events. And I hope we will have more and more common proposals for them.
(Aleksandra Zawalska-Hawel)

“We are grateful to Director of Municipal Public Library of Piekary Slaskie Aleksandra Zawalska-Hawel for the opportunity to jointly develop a new idea and prepare a new project. Aleksandra invited us to develop a project about historical events of January of 1863 Uprising in Lithuania and Kaunas “Following the footsteps of the insurgents 1863 in Lithuania”. So pleasant news has just reached us – we received funding!”
