A library is service that brings culture and information to the whole community, it’s a space where activities, ideas and information come together. A library offers services, materials and resources that can spark interests and passions in anyone and everyone.
The experience PromoCultura has gained in this field over the last few years has allowed us to offer more and more services that put individuals at their center, promoting the crucial role of libraries in communities. We work to pursue the best interests of the community and encourage integration, cultural growth and access to information as tools for engaged citizenship.
