Implementation of good practice

The Municipal Library of Kastoria is the Central Library of the Municipality of Kastoria which is in the region of Western Macedonia in Northern Greece.

The Municipal Library of Kastoria has organized in Kastoria a workshop with the participation of the Western Macedonia region. The aim of this workshop was to inform the libraries in the area of Western Macedonia regarding the LLP projects that exist and could be beneficial for the members of their libraries. The workshop had 2 parts: the presentation of the projects and the discussion on the way each one could be exploited in the libraries. The presentation was based on preparatory work made by Action Synergy and also on direct communication between Action Synergy and the library. The projects that were presented were the following: SUN.COM, GLOSSA, METIKOS, NIREAS, SEDRIN, and MMLT. For further information, the libraries were asked to contact the coordinator of these projects.

The workshop was organized in Kastoria with the participation of the Municipal libraries of Kozani, Kastoria, Grevena, Florina and Katerini.

Impact

• There is planning for the organisation of workshops with library visitors during the summer.
• The libraries of Western Macedonia have been informed regarding the LLP projects and the availability of LLP products that could be beneficial for their members.
