Show me, and I may remember. Involve me, and I will understand.“ This quotation from Confucius is more pertinent than ever. For many years now, the Cologne Public Library has combined progress with participation, by inspiring and enabling involvement and doing. Two major new events occurred in 2018: first, the STEM-themed year (MINT: math, engineering, science and technology), and second, the opening of the innovatively redesigned Kalk Library branch. A drastic shortage of STEM specialists is forecast in the next few years. Mathematics, engineering, science, and technology are central cultural skills and will, in the future, become a location factor of increased value. In addition to imparting reading and media skills, the Library seeks to foster an interest in these subjects by young people from an early age. In this way, children and young adults are helped not only to perceive digital offerings from the consumer‘s perspective, but also to try them out for themselves and to experience the Lib- rary as an experimental knowledge zone. The Kalk Library, developed according to the Design Thinking method, has become a place to experience and learn by doing – a feel-good place with a high degree of comfort. The positive response to the branch is over- whelming, not only from the neighborhood, but from industry experts who are streaming through the doors.
