Turkish girls are under more control in their families than Turkish boys. Young adults can get information about the Islamic religion, borrow the Koran without being forced to contact a mosque. If they have to cope with difficulties at school, remedial material can be found in public libraries, i.e. German Grammars, literature on cassettes, language courses, training material for all sc hool subjects. For many children and young adults a library is a place where they are not disturbed and under parental control and where they can occupy themselves or meet friends. Children from Turkey and other countries take part in special activities of the library at Christmas, carnival and in the summer.
Libraries organize meetings with foreign authors of children's books who live in Germany or abroad.
I am sorry that I only have the time to give some impressions of the multicultural activities in Germany.
