SINGAPORE: The Ang Mo Kio library will relocate to AMK Hub in 2026 due to development plans for a healthcare facility. This shift reflects a broader trend where standalone libraries in Singapore are moving to shopping malls, aiming to increase accessibility and visitor numbers by integrating them into bustling environments.
Experts suggest that relocating libraries to malls enhances accessibility, potentially attracting more casual visitors and fostering reading habits. This strategic shift is viewed as necessary to remain relevant in a digital age, emphasizing the importance of physical library spaces amidst evolving urban landscapes.
