A programme of events for the very youngest, including a storybook cinema and a sleepover for cuddly toys, a book show and silent disco, a film screening, a board game evening and a book launch, will attract all age groups to the Night of the Libraries at the Janusz Korczak Library.


17:00 - 18:00: Picture book cinema with cuddly toy sleepover
An overnight stay in the library for your cuddly toys! You come with your cuddly toys, maybe not necessarily your favourite cuddly toy, to the evening picture book cinema. The team reads you stories and makes yourselves really cosy. 

Afterwards, your cuddly toys can spend the night in the library. The team takes good care of them and maybe it can take a photo or two of them for you to have afterwards.

The cuddly toys and photos can then be collected on Saturday between 10:00 and 15:00.

19:00 - 21:00: Book premiere: Bürokratopia - how administration can save democracy by Julia Borggräfe
Germany's bureaucracy devours 915 billion euros a year - and yet it often works too badly. Their growing overload and inefficiency are dramatically undermining trust in the state, as can be seen from recent surveys. Labour law expert Julia Borggräfe makes concrete suggestions on how bureaucracy could be radically improved. Positive examples from other countries show that a functioning administration does not have to remain a utopia.
Where? Prayer room on the 2nd floor

20:00 - 21:45: Film screening with popcorn ‘Alois Nebel’ (from 12 years)
It is the end of summer in 1989 and Alois Nebel is working as a railway dispatcher on the Czechoslovakian-Polish border, near a small deserted community. He is a loner who prefers old timetables to people and finds the solitude of the railway station quiet and relaxing - except when the fog comes. Then he begins to hallucinate, seeing ghosts and the shadows from the dark past of this area, where brutal revenge was taken on the German population after the Second World War.
Where? Youth area on the ground floor
