Abstract

The Mission of the Public Library Daruvar is to provide information, knowledge and culture to all its users regardless of their age, nationality, religion or political orientation, and to fulfill users’ requests using modern technology if necessary. Since our local community is multicultural, the Daruvar Public Library has been working on bringing together the minorities and their native languages and cultures. For the past two years, we have developed intensive programs and have shared our experiences with our sister library in Czech Republic and the National and University Library “Derviš Sušić” in Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The main goal of the Daruvar Public Library is to continue developing intercultural communication in order to bring reading closer to different groups of library users.
