About

In addition to its regular libraries, Suwon has three libraries dedicated solely to children: Seulgisaem, Bareunsaem, and Jihyesaem. Opened in 2005, Jihyesaem Children's Library is a space for knowledge, information, and culture, founded to help children, the city's future, grow up to be wise, thoughtful, and upright. The library has three floors. The 1st floor holds Ongdalsaem, the preschool reading room, and the Agi Dungji Room; the 2nd floor has Duresaem, the elementary school reading room, and an auditorium; and the 3rd floor houses the family reading room and the Media Art Environmental Education Center. With a collection of about 140,000 books and a variety of reading and cultural programs, the library aims to inspire dreams, hope, and curiosity in young children, and to offer cultural experiences and build information skills for the coming age of knowledge and information.
