There are large differences in the space allocated to school libraries in the country's library plans. This is shown by a new report from the Royal Library (KB).

In half of the country's 290 municipal library plans, the school library activities are described on less than one page or not at all, according to the report.

Barely half of the plans state that school libraries should be staffed. Only in 15 percent of the plans is it mentioned that the staffing should consist of professionally trained librarians.

"The report does indeed indicate that around 86 percent of the country's municipalities express ambitions for school library activities in their plans, but the level of ambition looks very different", says Oskar Laurin, unit manager at the unit for library cooperation at KB, in a press release.
