Bibliomedia Switzerland is a public foundation that supports reading promotion and library development across Switzerland, mainly by providing loaned media collections and practical infrastructure support rather than traditional cash grants. Its funding is especially oriented toward starting, re-opening, or strengthening municipal and public libraries, with an emphasis on access to books, literacy, and culturally responsive library services. It also appears to support partner organizations and field-building initiatives that improve library practice, reading animation, and mediation formats for children, youth, and multilingual communities.
Primarily in-kind support through long-term loans of starter media collections, typically for about 3 years, with recipients paying a modest annual supporter contribution. Support is program-based and Switzerland-only, focused on new or reorganized public libraries and related field-strengthening initiatives rather than open, unrestricted grantmaking.

Approach this as a specialized library-development program, not a general grantmaker: eligibility is centered on municipal/public libraries in Switzerland that are starting up or reopening. Applicants should be prepared to describe the library concept, local need, and how the borrowed starter collection will be used over the 3-year period; expect an in-kind loan arrangement plus an annual contribution rather than a standard cash award.
