Data collection is done through observation and questionnaire respondents. The research method chosen is quantitative-descriptive. Frequency data obtained from research instruments will be analyzed descriptively. The instruments used in this study were arrival journals, reading activity observation sheets, and book lending journals. Based on the results of the study it can be seen that community library activities can increase children’s reading interest with indicators of increasing numbers of children entering, the number of children reading and the number of children borrowing books. This result is reinforced by data from the questionnaire that 19 out of 40 respondents liked borrowing books from community libraries while 21 answered they liked it.
