At the Creative Table: Women Who Changed the World
Creative workshop at Højbjerg Library where children build LEGO homes for chimpanzees inspired by Jane Goodall's research.
Højbjerg Bibliotek on Oddervej serves the Højbjerg, Holme and Skåde neighbourhoods, with catchment areas extending to Beder, Malling and Mårslet. The two-storey building houses adult collections and citizen services on the ground floor, while the first floor holds the children's library, newspapers, periodicals and study spaces. Regular events for children and adults run throughout the year, alongside rotating art exhibitions. From 2027, a new cultural centre called LYS1 is planned to replace the current library.
