Qingdao, a coastal city in China's eastern Shandong province, has built 50 City Studies to enhance its public cultural services.
City Studies function as miniature knowledge hubs and represent a new model for public cultural spaces. They seamlessly bring together library resources from both the city and its districts to the residents.
These urban studies, strategically positioned within a 15-minute walk from residential areas, offer complimentary self-service book borrowing, reading spaces, study areas, and cultural exchange programs.
The integration of these places into Qingdao's cultural landscape not only enhances accessibility but also underscores the city's commitment to enriching the cultural experience of its citizens.
