Pelatihan Kelompok Baca Keluarga telah dilaksanakan untuk para istri staf lapangan Cinta Baca dari seluruh Indonesia. Pelatihan dilakukan di Medan, Sumatera Utara (10 Mei 2010) dan di Bogor, Jawa Barat (19 Mei 2010). Debbie Wardle, pelatih dari Amerika Serikat, mengajarkan bagaimana menjalankan kurikulum dan membangun kelompok baca keluarga untuk masyarakat. Pelatihan ini amat penting karena membangun budaya membaca masyarakat akan sangat strategis bila melibatkan keluarga. Orang tua yang terbiasa membacakan buku kepada anaknya sejak usia dini akan menumbuhkan kebiasaan dalam diri anak terhadap dunia membaca. Ini memberi dampak pada kemampuan anak dalam mengikuti pendidikan dan mandiri dalam memabngun dirinya.

Pandeglang Library Out Growing its Facilities |

The Banten Village Library in Andeglang is growing. As the first Cinta Baca village library in the area of Banten, this library is getting more visits from the community. Around 10-30 people come to visit the library and check out books every day. The people are very enthusiastic to read the books available at this library. We are currently searching for a new permanent place for this library. The building being used currently is being rented and is too small for this growing library. The small place has prevented us from doing any educational activities. Cinta Baca will need around 100 million Rupiahs to purchase a simple building to accommodate the library. We currently have 75 million available and are looking to raise the remaining amount in the coming months. |

Kayu Agung-Sumsel in three months, starting in October 09, Kayu Agung Village Library has opened five new Reading Posts at five villages in the district of Ogan Komering Ilir. The new Reading Posts are:
- CB Serinanti
- CB Seriguna
- CB Kijangbaru
- CB Muarabaru
- CB Betijaya.
People show an enthusiasm for these Reading Posts. Their interest can be seen by the number of people visiting and their hope for more books. These Reading Posts are opened every day. At least 10 people visit a Post each day. Two Reading Posts are opened at local government office, one at a teacher’s house and another one at a kindergarten. More Reading Posts are needed in this region. CB is planning to open six more on Feb-March.
Renovation Completed
Cinta Baca has invested 40 million Rupiahs to renovate this library. This will hopefully help CB Kayu Agung better serve the community through programs and make the library more attractive for both adults and young people. |

Heading Towards 200 Reading Posts |

In 2010, Cinta Baca has a goal to open 156 new Reading Posts among the society. With the addition of these new Reading Posts, Cinta Baca will have 200 Reading Posts by the end of 2010. Some preparations are conducted on January for the implementation of this project.
Cinta Baca is thankful for 45 Community Learning Centers (CLC ) that were opened in 2009. Each of the CLC is library and non formal education based. With these achievements, by the end of 2009 Cinta Baca has already had 63 CLC that consist of 4 city libraries, 15 village libraries, and 44 Reading Posts. Focusing on rural communities as main target, Cinta Baca’s Community Learning Centers are located in 7 provinces, at 22 districts/cities. To realize the commitment for 200 Reading Posts in 2010, Cinta Baca is to do some preparations and anticipation at national basis as well as at regional basis. Some of the preparations are: upgrading the human resources of the staff, strengthening the internal system, and starting some fund raising and book driving efforts. At least 1,2 billion Indonesian Rupiahs and 31 thousand books are needed. Those needs are enormous. However, the actual need of Indonesian society for books is larger than that. At least 50 thousand villages in Indonesia do not have their own libraries. The contribution of those who are burdened for this condition is highly expected.
Below is a summary of new programs or posts that were opened in the past month and our plans for the future.
