INFES work

During the project period, the buildings of the Adomas Mickevičius Public Library are to be completely renovated and refurbished.

Significance of the project

Libraries are important for the city as centres of information literacy, spiritual personal development, quality improvement of visitors, and cultural awareness. As a space that has a significant impact on the quality of life of the society, the attractiveness of the Adomas Mickevičius Public Library will increase in the eyes of the visitors – they will be invited to visit the renovated buildings, where they will be able to use educational and scientific services, attend events, use computers, or take part in various training activities.

Results

After the major renovation and refurbishment of the Adomas Mickevičius Public Library buildings, the library will welcome its visitors with a completely renewed, but still antique-looking image. The improved accessibility and quality of cultural services to the public will also be improved.
