The National Library for Children and Young Adults (NLCY) is a branch library of the National Library of Korea, that aims to provide information services and reading promotion services to children and young adults, located in Tehaeran-ro 7-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
As Korea’s representative library specialized for children and young adults, NLCY was opened on 28 June 2006. Because the six-story library building (4 ground floors and 2 underground floors) is located near the Gangnam Station, it provides easy access to people of all ages, including children, young adults, and adults. The library collects knowledge and information resources on children and young adult fields and as of May 2021, the library is in possession of 715,066 volumes in total; including 520,851 volumes of oriental books, 80,400 volumes of western books, 17,459 volumes of periodicals, 96,356 units of non-books. The collection covers not only children and young adult materials, but also research materials for researchers in the relevant field. Also, NLCY implements projects to develop reading culture contents for children and young adults and to support local public libraries and school libraries.
Aiming to cultivate human resources with creativity and convergence in relation to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, NLCY opened the Future Dream Hope Factory - a library makerspace – and runs various library-based creative programs that graft books and ICT. In 2020, the AR Center was established within the library in order to provide tangible reading activities for children and young adults in the Fourth Industrial Revolution and 5G Era, and programs with convergence contents featuring ‘books’ and ‘stories’ are developed and run in the Center.
