The 100-Library Youth Network aims to build, renovate, and improve libraries in rural
schools to promote reading and enhance the quality of education for underprivileged
students in rural areas. Libraries play a crucial role in providing students with access to
high-quality books and essential learning materials, enabling them to expand their
knowledge and strengthen their academic skills. Through reading and research, students
can acquire new knowledge that can be applied not only in their studies but also in their
daily lives.
A future where every rural student thrives through access to well equipped, welcoming school libraries that inspire curiosity, strengthen reading habits, and foster academic achievement and lifelong learning.
To strengthen young people’s learning, leadership, and community engagement by:
1. Building, renovating and improving 100 accessible and innovative libraries;
2. Providing lifelong learning resources, mentorship, and digital literacy skills;
3. Creating safe, collaborative spaces that inspire curiosity, creativity, and civic responsibility; and
4. Partnering with schools, communities, and NGOs to promote equitable access to quality education.
We believe every young person deserves free, fair, and access to books, technology, and learning spaces.
We foster curiosity and support continuous growth in literacy, digital skills, creativity, and personal development.
We elevate youth voices, encourage leadership, and enable young people to contribute meaningfully to their communities.
We work hand in hand with local communities, educators, and partners to create a supportive learning environment.
We embrace new ideas, technologies, and approaches to make libraries active hubs of discovery and inspiration.ortive learning environment.
