KB19 Educational Outreach
"We are Making a Library" is a project developed by young people aimed at igniting a special long-term relationship with books and addressing the absence of public libraries in their lives.
Inspired by the work of artist Madiha Aijaz, installed at the Jamshed Memorial Hall Library during KB17, this project explored existing libraries in Karachi and ways to ensure they remain accessible. The project was held in collaboration with Tetley UK, where a parallel project was also carried out.
Over two weeks, the group investigated libraries across Karachi: Frere Hall, Liaquat Library, Jamshed Memorial Hall Library, and the British Council Library. This research led the young participants to redefine the word "library" and explore how one can be created without any perceived infrastructure.
The participants set up their own library—a multilingual selection donated by the community—which opened to the public on August 1, 2018, at Alliance Française. It then moved to Orangi Township at the Office of the Orangi Pilot Project, becoming part of KB19 in October 2019. Currently, it stands as the only Children's Library in Orangi and is frequently visited by school children.
