Libraries as safe spaces for kids


Selected libraries will provide a conducive environment for children during the hours after or before their schooling sessions.

SELECTED libraries under the purview of the Selangor Public Library Corporation (PPAS) will be turned into a “Transit Friendly Library” to make them a safe space for schoolchildren after school hours.

“The idea is to provide a conducive, safe and comfortable environment for primary, and secondary schoolchildren during the hours after, or before their schooling sessions,” said Selangor Public Library Corporation deputy director Suzliana Abd Hamid.
