Public Libraries and Creative Health

Public libraries take on new roles, one of those is to become part of the social infrastructure promoting public health and tackling health inequalities through creative health. The programme of this symposium wants to highlight how creative health can become an intrinsic part of library offer and its added value on existing library services. The aim is to create more awareness about the value of public libraries for public health and the benefits that creativity has for our health and wellbeing.

With contributions from UCL Arts and Sciences, Balham Library GLL Wandsworth, Bradford Libraries, and more.
