Celebrating 20 Years of Jecheon Miracle Library, a True Gift to Korea

Knowledge   Celebrating 20 Years of Jecheon Miracle Library,a True Gift to Korea   2024.06.03   In Korea, there is a “Miracle Library,” which is the one and only in the world   In the early 2000s, children were particularly marginalized in Korea, especially in terms of library services. At that time, the “Miracle Library Project” began as a social concern to address the reality of children in our society who, due to poverty, social indifference, other unfortunate conditions, and the misguided greed of adults, were deprived of their right to grow up freely. In other words, the project was born out of the recognition of the need for libraries dedicated to children as the best possible environment for their creative growth by ensuring their right to grow up freely and broadening the equality of opportunity.The Miracle Library Project, a nationwide initiative to build libraries exclusively for children, was a collaborative effort of citizen...

Why We Read Fiction

One-Liner Quotes   Why We Read Fiction Pharmacist’s Pick   2024.04.01   Park Hool-Ryung is a pharmacist and writer who runs “A Bookstore That Is Yet Dependent.” With the goal of “Book & Fun,” which means that the fun of reading books shouldn’t be missed, the writer grows with readers and customers. (Instagram: @a_dok_bang)   Most countries in the world today are deeply concerned about their aging populations. It is ironic that while we are living in an era of prosperity, benefiting from industrialization and advanced technology, the number of young people who will take the lead in the country is shrinking.
