The corner of the children's study, tentacles "spiritual food". This is not only a consideration of a city's cultural taste, but also a useful exploration to promote the transformation and upgrading of public cultural services to high quality and diversification.
The philosopher Heidegger said that human beings should inhabit the earth poetically. A place that can be poetically inhabited must be a place full of books.
At the beginning of construction, Ruzi Study adhered to the principle of "one museum and one feature", fully considering the cultural characteristics of each county and the needs of the service population, and creating a unique physical space:
The Zhangshulin Branch Library focuses on the theme of parent-child reading, with a focus on childlike fun, the Ruiyi Branch Library focuses on the theme of tourism and increases the proportion of tourism books, and the Hongdu Aviation Culture Park Branch Library displays a commemorative aircraft model, imprinting the "Hongdu Memory" that is difficult for a generation to part, and the perfect fit of "external beauty and inner beauty" has become the key element to attract readers.
However, in the minds of every book lover, there is an ideal study room of his own, how to manage the "ideal national reading space" in the minds of book lovers?
In terms of operation and management, Ruzi Study innovatively adopts the national co-construction model of "public construction and public management, public construction and private management, and private construction and public assistance", revitalizes the existing social and cultural resources, and realizes the global connection of reading resources, the global coordination of service promotion, and the overall improvement of reading quality.
"The study room is close to my home, I enjoy the atmosphere here, sometimes I borrow books from the Yinhu Park branch, and I will return them to the Jinsha Community Park branch, which is very convenient to operate. Citizen Xiong Guiyun said.
The borrowing service mentioned by Xiong Guiyun is the first "one-click borrowing" public reading platform built by Ruzi Study in the province, and the first book "online borrowing service" in Nanchang City.
Culture takes root and grows, and happiness can be felt and touched.
Focusing on the three functions of "public reading, self-service borrowing and returning, and self-study and self-study", the Ruzi Study Room has designed special areas for different categories of books for different groups of people such as children, students, and "night readers", including a boutique book area, a children's book area, an adult book area, a digital reading area, a salon area, a self-study room and a toilet, and explored the trial 24-hour operation and opening.
The comfortable and comfortable reading environment brings the masses a new cultural experience, and makes people really feel that these beautiful spaces laid out in the corners of the city start with reading, but go far beyond reading.

If the public library is the main structure that supports the reading of the whole people, the study rooms distributed in the corners of the city are the nerve endings, which continue to send fresh "blood" to the reading of the whole people.
Everyone says that reading is good, but not everyone can read quietly. A high-quality national reading space should be able to arouse the memories of the elderly, the thinking of the middle-aged and the creativity of the younger generation, so that the masses can go from "walking and seeing" to "staying and tasting a product".
In the Ruzi Study, readers of different ages and industries can become reading promoters and recommend good books, and there are also cultural "celebrities" and celebrities who communicate with readers in each branch library, and there are also special cultural activities in each branch library in turn......
"I am very happy to be able to enjoy so many high-quality public cultural services at my doorstep. Chen Xiaoping, 43 years old this year, said. As of the end of March this year, the Ruzi Study has carried out a total of 518 activities on 217 themes such as parent-child reading, good book recommendations, and reading salons, with more than 100,000 offline traffic and more than 10 million online traffic.
The endless special reading promotion activities make the cultural life of the masses wonderful and rewarding every day. On weekends and holidays, in addition to hiking and outings, more and more people choose to walk into the study room of the children to enjoy the happy time and feel the quiet years in the cultural "slow life".

In the Ruzi Study, the unmanaged self-service mode has stimulated the awareness of the masses of self-management services, and more and more volunteers have chosen to join the construction and management of the Ruzi Study, which has become a new business card of Nanchang's urban civilization.
Trisha Chen is a cultural service volunteer of the Ligao Branch Library of the Ruzi Study in the High-tech Zone, and she is particularly touched by the fact that she sees more and more readers entering it, and will take the initiative to organize and put the books back in place while reading, and jointly love and protect the books.
From the construction of equalized positions, to the intelligent whole-process services, to the diversified reading activities, "Reading for All" is building infinite possibilities in the limited space of the Ruzi Study, and gradually forming a vivid scene of gathering popularity, vitality and sustainability.
These 100 children's study rooms scattered in the corners of city streets, quiet alleys, and deep parks not only connect the "15-minute urban reading circle", illuminate the cultural and spiritual life of the masses, but also reveal the temperature, warmth and warmth of reading for all people in Nanchang.
