Impact of Mobile Libraries on Youth Education in Uzbekistan

Abstract

This article examines the historical evolution, present situation, advantages, issues, and potential future trends of mobile libraries in Uzbekistan with special emphasis on their contribution to youth education. Based on cultural heritage and given new life through contemporary programs, mobile libraries have become key tools for narrowing education gaps between the city and the countryside. As much as there has been state initiative and outside assistance, imbalances in the provision of infrastructures and quality educational resources still exist. Mobile libraries address these challenges by availing reading materials to disadvantaged youth, fostering literacy, and supporting autonomous learning. Via case studies and analysis, the essay points out how mobile libraries ensure inclusive education and suggests how their effectiveness and sustainability can be broadened in Uzbekistan's education system.
