Yesterday morning, the fifth shared study room in Baoshan District, "Yijian Book Garden", was officially unveiled in the Hulin Road Park, Shanghai, No. 531 Hulin Road, becoming the first shared study room in Shanghai that integrates reading and aesthetic education, and also kicked off the 2024 Shanghai Book Fair Baoshan District Branch Event and the prelude to the Baoshan Reading Month in August.
The interior design of this new community cultural space integrating reading and exhibition is simple, and the color scheme is clean and bright. The 160-square-meter space is divided into a children's book area, an adult book area, an art exhibition area and an activity corner, among which the exhibition area is particularly eye-catching. On the day of the unveiling, the exhibition "Co-creation and Resonance: Young Artists' Works in Yijian Shuyuan" in cooperation with the Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts of Shanghai University was exhibited. On the walls, there are different types of art works of different styles, including oil paintings on canvas, woodblock prints, ink on paper, etc., in a fresh and calm tone, or natural and simple. The whole space is full of literary and artistic sense, attracting many citizens. Shao Liyuan, a citizen, said, "This shared study room allows me to see so many beautiful paintings and rich books in a very close place, which is a very good opportunity for us and very attractive." ”
The "Yijian Library" shared study room has a collection of more than 5,000 books, equipped with digital reading equipment, self-service borrowing and returning equipment, and has been added to the "all-in-one card" system of Shanghai Central Library. The study room is characterized by the integration of book reading and art exhibitions. Here, citizens can not only borrow books, but also watch art exhibitions and participate in various cultural and artistic activities. The relevant person in charge of Baoshan District Library said, "Next, we will carry out cultural activities such as classic reading, parent-child reading and special exhibitions on a regular basis, so as to educate people with aesthetics and culture, so that surrounding residents can enjoy artistic edification and high-quality public cultural services at their doorsteps." ”
In order to practice the concept of a people's city and better meet the new expectations of citizens' spiritual and cultural life, Baoshan District has successively built "shared study rooms" with both quality and characteristics in parks, science and technology parks, business districts, and talent apartments. The unveiling of the "Yijian Library" was jointly built by Baoshan District Library, Shanghai Yijian Investment Development Co., Ltd. and Zhangmiao Street Community Cultural Activity Center, which is characterized by serving the community, radiating about 15 surrounding residential areas and weaving a dense "15-minute cultural life circle". The relevant person in charge of Shanghai Yijian Investment Development Co., Ltd. said, "We have optimized and adjusted the limited site space to revitalize about 160 square meters of real estate space, as a public welfare shared study room, to provide public welfare services for the surrounding residents." We think it's a very rewarding thing. ”
On the same day, the shared study room also held an art workshop, gelatin printmaking experience activities and reading activities. Teachers from the Academy of Fine Arts of Shanghai University explained the production process and techniques of gelatin prints to the public, and guided them to make works with bright colors and rich textures, so that the citizens could enjoy the fun of artistic handicrafts while reading. A resident who visited the exhibition said: "These activities have gone out of the library and art gallery to the doorstep, the culture is more accessible to the people, and we have a good place to go for city walk." ”
In the following August, Baoshan District Library took the "Shanghai Book Fair" as an opportunity to join hands with Baoshan Branch of China Post Group and Baoshan Branch of Postal Savings Bank of China to carry out a series of theme activities of "Meet Children's Fun 'Post' You Are Right" Reading Month. Integrating the three major sections of "Book Rhyme Enjoyment", "Literary Rhyme Adventure" and "Children's Rhyme and Antiquity", it shows the reading characteristics of Baoshan people through picture book stories, intangible cultural heritage experience, writer meeting, classic reading and other forms. More than 80 activities were held in multiple places, covering libraries, towns, communities, shared study rooms and other places in the district, creating an immersive reading experience month.
During the reading month, Baoshan District Library also launched the "Audio Library", which sent high-quality children's audition resources to 100 grassroots points in the district, such as special reading spaces and postal storage outlets. The person in charge of the Baoshan District Library said: "In the future, the 'Audio Library' will be changed regularly, with different themes, so that the public can easily access reading resources and make reading a way of life." ”
