Reconstruction of the building in New Akmenė, V. Kudirkos st. 9, adaptation to the needs of the public library of Akmenė district municipality

The existing infrastructure of the public library of Akmenė district municipality does not provide sufficient accessibility and quality of the services provided, i.e. limited access to permanent library services, as the existing premises are too small to organise high-quality cultural events. Since 2007, the building located at V. Kudirkos str. 9, New Akmenė has been reconstructed, where the public library of Akmenė district municipality will be located. Within the scope of this project, the reconstructed building will be completed and equipment and furniture necessary for the operation of the library will be purchased and installed. The implementation of the project activities and the transfer of the library’s activities to more spacious premises will improve the quality of the traditional library services already provided and create the conditions for new services: there are music and arts, foreign languages, local science reading rooms and conference halls. All traditional processes of searching-issuing and returning publications will be simplified and accelerated by the implemented circulating process management and automation system. It is expected that a modernised cultural infrastructure that meets the needs of modern society will contribute to the creation of higher quality cultural services, encourage additional flows of visitors (visits), thus increasing the attractiveness of the city of New Akmene for investment and business development.
