    Number of public libraries

    What we collect

    This indicator tracks the number of public libraries in the region.

    Why we collect it

    Public libraries serve as a repository of knowledge and culture while acting as a crucial learning resource for communities. Expanding this service is a vital way to improve community sustainability. Monitoring this indicator will help us ensure adequate library coverage to meet the needs of all residents.
