Library Avengers is a think tank established by the Reading & Writing Foundation to advocate for libraries and raise awareness of their essential role in local communities. The think tank will develop strategies to transform perceptions of libraries among European policymakers and break down ignorance about the important role of public libraries. They will also seek opportunities for collaborative projects to stimulate innovation and reflection on how libraries can better serve communities in the future.
