Partner organization : Samut Sakhon Provincial Administration Organization
History : Naming education as its pressing agenda, Samut Sakhon Provincial Administration Organization focuses on making learning resources more accessible. Hence they collaborated with the government, the private sector, educational institutions and the public to form a “Living Library” in 2006.
Samut Sakhon Provincial Administration Organization signed an agreement with the Thailand Knowledge Park (TK park), who owns the model of “Living Library”, to advise them on developing the library. TK park has ever since assisted them on training staffs, managing the automatic library and membership system, selecting books, supporting learning materials and generating localized content for Samut Sakhon province.
