| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Europe, public libraries provide special facilities for children with reading disabilities, allowing them to see, read, or listen to books in various ways. This study investigated and compared support systems for children with reading disabilities at public libraries in Europe and Japan, focusing on support for children with dyslexia, including, for example, the availability of easy-to-read books. Information was gathered through interviews with librarians. After interviewing the European librarians working in children libraries, we found that each of them conducts originality events for children, where the children have the opportunity to discover various books. Children were able to acquire knowledge through these events and pursue knowledge using these newly-discovered books. It is suggested that adopting the concept of the European children’s library to Japanese libraries might give all Japanese children the opportunity to read more books.
