I'm currently doing a project to register all public library organisations (pm 150 in numbers) and their branches (pm 1450) in The Netherlands in Wikidata: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Netherlands_Public_Libraries

Currently still very much work in progress (hence the messy page), I've done approx. 550 out of 1600 libraries: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Netherlands_Public_Libraries/Branches

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: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Sic19#SPARQL_queries
