Community libraries get help from local people and companies. The local companies provide space for free. Community volunteers also often provide help for the local libraries. If you enter the community library in Nanxiang Old Town, you will find it has a strong Chinese style. Among all community libraries in Jiading, the one in Nanxiang Old Town is the most special. It is next to the famous Tanyuan Garden, which was the private garden of Li Liufang, a scholar(学者) in the Ming Dynasty. The library is on the first floor of a building in the ancient Chinese style. There are 4,100 Chinese picture books in it. Zhang Bo works with volunteers to provide more books for their readers of all age groups. Some time ago, Zhang noticed that a girl often came to the library after school by herself. The girl did her homework at the library, but she never talked to anyone. Zhang learned that she had trouble communicating with others, so Zhang and other volunteers made friends with her. They became her" family away from home"." That is true community spirit," Zhang said.
