The Library of the Municipality of Agia Varvara has borne, since 1990, the honorary name of Nikos Chahlakis, who was one of the first organ donors in Greece. It began offering its services in 1988 as a lending library and reading room with 15–20 seats. Its collection amounts to more than 12,000 book titles. The number of members (over 3,200) as well as the number of loans has shown a significant upward trend in recent years. Its children’s section is well-equipped and up-to-date. Special emphasis is placed on promoting reading habits and collaborating with schools of all levels, organizing educational programs as well as orientation visits to the Library’s services. Within the Library, since 2009, a “Reading Club” has been operating, which, in collaboration with the relevant authorities, organizes events for presenting books and authors. To date, more than 40 presentations have been held. Since 2013, the Library has participated in the “Summer Reading and Creativity Campaign” under the auspices of the Future Library initially, and later the National Library, with the Stavros Niarchos Foundation as the exclusive sponsor, organizing events for children.
