  5. Flemish policy priorities on local cultural policy Municipalities commit themselves • to pursue a qualitative and sustainable local cultural policy • to organize a low-threshold library • to establish a cultural centre. Flanders holds on to a strategy of an integrated cultural policy, whereby public libraries gear their activities to the other cultural actors in the municipality.

  6. Flemish policy priority public library municipalities should operate a library which: • stimulates cultural education and reading motivation; • focuses on the promotion of e-inclusion among target groups that are difficult to reach and on the increase of information literacy and media literacy; • invests in an adapted service provision for the disabled and for target groups that are difficult to reach in the cultural, educational and socio-economic field; • promotes cooperation with education institutions.

  7. Subsidies public libraries • No commitment to Flemish policy priorities = no subsidies from Flemish Government • less than 10,000 inhabitants: subsidy of 56,000 euro per year • 10,000+ inhabitants: 6.5 euro per inhabitant per year
