Open libraries. The visits program of the Valencian Library Nicolau Primitiu

Abstract

In a context of reduced public funding and a paradigm shift in access to information, the survival of libraries is linked to greater and better knowledge by citizens of their collections, products, and services. This study analyzes the visits program of the Biblioteca Valenciana Nicolau Primitiu, its characteristics, recipients, and typologies, as well as the results achieved so far.
