Education in science literacy outside the classroom: the case of libraries
Education in science usually is related to diverse science activities undertaken in schools and at universities. School and university students have mostly unobstructed access to scientific knowledge and instruction in scientific methods as part of their daily educational activities, while citizens outside the domain of formal education are in less favorable position. As a result, they seek scientific content and activities online or in libraries, including public libraries, which are by their definition accessible to all citizens regardless of their age, education, gender, religion etc. and offer diverse learning opportunities to their users. Public libraries in Croatia have been helping citizens to become familiar with recent developments in science and to become informed individuals who will be able to make important decisions in their lives based on their knowledge about the world that surrounds them. This paper aims to introduce public libraries in Croatia as places at which science education is not only possible but it is already done rather intensive and widely accepted by the different generations of library users.
