library

In the heart of Malaysia, a transformative initiative has been unfurling, blending the rich worlds of libraries and citizen science into a vibrant tapestry of learning, discovery, and community engagement. Spearheaded by the visionary efforts of the Librarians Association of Malaysia, in collaboration with the U.S. Embassy in Kuala Lumpur and various academic institutions, the “Bridging Worlds: Libraries as Connectors in Citizen Science” initiative has redefined the role of libraries in the digital age, specifically in the citizen science movement.
