What kind of image did you do DIY?

I made a place from scratch with the wish that it would be a place for children.In making the library, I carefully made it while imagining the final form.

Please tell us your thoughts on opening the library.

Above all, I was very happy that many local people and children came on the day of the opening.I would be happy if I could feel the meaning of making this library, and it would be a place for many people in the future.

It is to launch crowdfunding to collect opening funds.Until the very end, I was worried whether or not donations would be collected for regional revitalization activities, but in the end, a total of 112 million yen was collected.Thank you very much to everyone who donated.

The point that left an impression.please tell me how hard you worked

There are three points that I worked hard on before opening. The first is to think about how the library can create good exchanges for the sake of community exchanges among users. Second, we thought about how to communicate the project when soliciting donations, and what gifts should be given in return for donations.And the third is public relations for the pre-event.As one of the public relations, of the disability welfare service office with which we usually have a relationshipIt left a deep impression on me that the users were able to experience Saori weaving, and that the [bookmarks] they made at that time were presented to people in the local shopping district..
