Libken Library
The Libken Library is an open space for neighbors and visitors from near and far, residents, and guests. It is a place for reading and writing, but also for exchanging ideas and sharing knowledge/stories, playing, or simply being together.
The library offers literature on topics such as feminism and diversity, anti-racism/PoC perspectives, relationships and lifestyles, nature and ecology, art and architecture, as well as literature by authors from the former GDR. Additionally, there is a small selection of children’s and youth books, comics, poetry, science fiction, and texts from and about the region (Böckenberg, Uckermark, Brandenburg, Poland). Over time, the werkarchiv libken will continue to grow.
Borrowing books is free of charge.
The library is located in the new building, Entrance C, first floor on the left. You can recognize it from the outside by the yellow railing.
