Study visit to Idea Stores London
|
For the study about the combination of Library and LLL in Kortrijk, an inventory of best practices from Belgium and abroad has been made.One good example of this synergy has been found in the Idea Stores of London.On the 8th of May, a delegation of people from the library, adult education institutes, urban planning and VISP Kortrijk went to London to see how the local Council succeeded in attracting more people into the library by offering a variety of LLL courses and activities for various target groups. The Idea Stores are vibrant places in a shopping area where one can read a book, learn, meet other people. Discussions were held about the various forms of collaboration with other external partners and personnel management, strategy and design of the Idea Stores.
