Guro-gu Supports Book Purchase Expenses for Small Libraries

Application on Botaem-e site until April 8

Guro-gu (District Mayor Moon Heon-il) is taking steps to support the revitalization of small libraries.

The target includes up to 15 registered public and private small libraries within the district, with support of up to 1.5 million KRW per library.

The provided subsidies must be used for book purchases and marking costs, and applications can be submitted through the Botaem-e (Local Subsidy Management System) website by April 8.

The district will select recipients through document screening, including small library operation status surveys and program operation performance, followed by review by the Local Subsidy Deliberation Committee, and plans to distribute subsidies in May.

For more detailed information, including exclusion criteria, please contact the Culture and Tourism Division of Guro-gu Office.

A Guro-gu official stated, “This project is open to both public small libraries and private small libraries that received support through the public small library contest held in February this year,” adding, “We will strive to create a comfortable reading culture.”
