Thanks Olaf!
This kind of Wikidata data collection is actually a huge part of the
conversation behind The Finding GLAMs initiative led by Wikimedia Sweden.

I'm currently doing a project to register all
public library organisations

Currently still very much work in progress (hence the messy page), I've
done approx. 550 out of 1600 libraries:

The plan is to also include all the tables in Dutch & English Wikipedia,
so to significantly expand
https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lijst_van_bibliotheken#Nederland with Dutch
public libraries
I know that User:Sic19 has done similar work for the public libraries in
Wales:
