El valor social de la información y las bibliotecas : acercamientos e indagaciones

Abstract

The purpose of the present book is to offer a group of theoretical approximations and explanatory proposals, departing from a reflexive and empirical work about how it is possible to comprehend the social value of the library, be it as a main actor or located in diverse contexts and analysis perspectives. Library is thus an indispensable social institution in Lain America in establishing this way its interaction with the communities to which it attends, with which also justifies its need of making understandable or explain the diverse ways with which implements its services highlighting its value as well as its own resonance in the society.
