Oktober je med drugim tudi mednarodni mesec šolskih knjižnic. V tem času šole šolskim knjižnicam po vsem svetu posvečajo posebno pozornost ter praznično poudarjajo njihovo pomembnost z različnimi dejavnostmi, ki potekajo v njih. Knjižničarji se trudijo na najrazličnejše načine privabiti učence v knjižnico in jih spodbuditi k branju, s projekti pa tako razvijajo bralno kulturo otrok in pozitiven odnos do knjig, negujejo njihovo ljubezen do knjig in jih oblikujejo v zahtevnejše bralce. V prispevku so opisane knjižnične dejavnosti, ki so bile oktobra 2023 izvedene v šolski knjižnici Osnovne šole Frana Albrehta Kamnik. V šolskem letu 2023/2024 je bil slogan meseca “Šolska knjižnica: kjer ustvarjalnosti in domišljiji ni meja”. Slogan je tako v prvi vrsti spodbujal k dojemanju šolske knjižnice kot prostora, ki navdihuje ter spodbuja k ustvarjalnosti in uporabi domišljije ter kjer se učenci počutijo prijetno in predvsem varno.
Abstract
All Roads Lead to the Library
October is, among other things, the International School Library Month. During that month, school libraries across the world are devoted special attention, with various activities taking place in them to highlight their importance. Librarians try to attract pupils to the library and encourage them to read in diverse ways; through projects, they develop the children’s reading culture and positive attitude towards books, nurture their love of books, and mould them into more demanding readers. The article describes library activities that were implemented in October 2023 at the school library of the Fran Albreht Kamnik Primary School. In the 2023/2024 school year, the slogan of the month was “School Library: Where Creativity and Imagination Know No Bounds”. Thus, the slogan mainly promoted a perception of the school library as a place that inspires; that encourages creativity and using one’s imagination; and as a place where pupils feel good and, above all, safe.
