4. Children's Library “Vecliepājas rūķis”
The beginnings of the children's library "Vecliepājas rūķis" date back to 1919, when a children's department was established at the LCZB and set apart from the mainstream literature. This move was initiated by the librarian and bibliographer Voldemārs Caune.
In May 1947, the 1st Children's Library was established on the basis of the Children's department, and later the library acquired a new name - "Vecliepājas rūķis".
The library runs reading promotion programmes - children's, young people's and parents' jury and a national read-aloud competition.
The library offers the opportunity to get to know the cultural heritage of the region and to get involved in the preservation of traditions through various educational activities - digital tour "Architect Paul Max Bertschy’s houses in Liepāja", "Liepāja then and now", etc.
