Sažetak
Zagreb City Libraries is the largest network of public libraries in Croatia, and according to the annual library work reports, the most numerous
users of libraries are children aged 7 to 14. A literary text is the basis of all programs and activities created by librarians at the Children and
Young Adults Sections in the Zagreb City Libraries. Application of developmental bibliotherapy encourages and develops
reading literacy in library users. Selected literary texts, with the help from professionals, shape the way of thinking and affect behaviour and as
such can help in solving problems that some individuals face. By introducing bibliotherapy, public libraries, are getting another
socially useful purpose as places of interaction between the literary text and library users, with the purpose of creating socially and emotionally
competent individuals who comprise a healthy society.
