The Osaka Municipal Fukushima Library is a public library in Fukushima-ku that holds over 73,000 books and learning materials for the neighborhood. The collections cover various subjects and support reading and learning for the local community.
The library was founded in 1987 as the Fukushima-ku district transformed from an industrial center into a residential area. Its establishment was part of that neighborhood's broader change.
The library provides foreign language materials and information services for both Japanese speakers and international residents living in the district. It reflects the diverse population that makes up the Fukushima-ku community.
