As part of the program for young people of the City Library of Virovitica, there is a Youth Club “On reading and all the other things”. At meetings held once a month, members of the aforementioned Club discuss the books they have read and create and present various content for young people. The goal of this work is to show how the Club works, what content is created within the Club’s activities, and for the purpose of popularizing programs for young people and encouraging the establishment of reading clubs for young people in other libraries.
