The reading room provides users with a wide array of newspapers and magazines, while the media department offers a selection of DVDs, audio CDs, and audiobooks. It hosts weekly storytelling hours, literary evenings, exhibitions, lectures, and other educational activities including English communication hours, workshops, computer courses, and Internet browsing presentations for youth and adults.
