Little library in the open renewed, Podgorica

Actions, Activities

Respecting the measures of covid prevention measures, volunteers of the NGO Our action set up a renovated small open-air library in the Bocar Club in Gorica, Podgorica. Although the Club is closed, we wanted to prepare a library for citizens. Due to the measures, we were not able to make a public action, so the volunteers themselves, among their families, collected donations of books for the new library in the refrigerator. We hope that next week open civic actions will be possible in our further installation and renovation of libraries throughout Montenegro.
