General information

Description of the project

In the context of a full-scale war, the Yarmolynetsk community, like all of Ukraine, is facing unprecedented challenges: psychological stress, the need for access to relevant information, the need to support internally displaced persons, and general societal fatigue. The existing library infrastructure is outdated, which limits its ability to meet the modern needs of the community.
Creating a multifunctional hub based on the library is vital for:
- psychological comfort and socialization: providing a safe and comfortable place where residents can meet, communicate, distract from negative news and reduce stress levels;
- learning and development: providing access to modern educational resources, conducting lectures, master classes on various topics (digital literacy, psychological resilience, creativity);
- integration: facilitating the integration of internally displaced persons through joint activities and creating a favorable environment for adaptation;
- communication and leisure: organizing film screenings, discussion clubs, co-working zones, which will promote an active public life;
- strengthening community ties: creating a space for interaction and support, which will help unite the community in difficult times.

The purpose of the project

Main Goal:

Increasing compliance with modern standards

Secondary Goal:

Creation of new facilities and services, Improving the equality of wealth distribution, Ensuring inclusiveness and equal opportunities, Improving the quality of services, Meeting demand

Description of the purpose of the project and ways to achieve it

The problem addressed by the project: the need to promote the further creation of a modern multifunctional public hub with an area of 98.5 sq.m., equipped with new furniture and computer equipment. The goal of the project is to transform the Yarmolynetsk Central Library into a modern, inclusive and multifunctional public hub, which will promote the integration, development and psychological recovery of community residents in war conditions. Project objectives: to purchase modern, functional and comfortable furniture for organizing a communication area, lecture hall, co-working and recreation area. It is necessary to purchase computer equipment and equipment (computers, laptops, projector, interactive whiteboard, Wi-Fi routers) to ensure free access to the Internet and conduct online/offline events. It is planned to organize and equip various functional areas in the library: a co-working area, a presentation area, an area for informal communication, a creative area. The project envisages developing and implementing a program of events: lectures, master classes, film screenings, meetings with psychologists, interest clubs, educational courses. Access to the hub will be provided for all categories of the population on barrier-free conditions.

Problems and solutions resulting from project implementation

Thanks to the project, residents and guests of the village of Yarmolyntsi, in particular the vulnerable category of the community, will be able to increase the level of digital literacy through access to computers and training, improve the psycho-emotional state and specialization of the community, increase the number of library visitors by at least 15% during the first year of the hub's operation, and strengthen the role of the library as a center of public life and integration in the Yarmolyntsi community.
