Description

Contributing to the cultural development of the town. The activities want to promote the use of the library and increase the interest in literature, of adults as well as children. Some of the objectives of the activities are: Reduce cultural and educational inequalities of the population, facilitate the access to cultural goods and democratize information. Create a collective consciousness of the value and importance of the library as an information resource. Offer the idea that the library is for everyone to the public and that even non-readers can find something interesting. The Centre Obert “La Tribu” is a service of socio-education during free time, that offers help for children with lower possibilities. It promotes the development of the personality and socializing among kids, it’s also aimed to help children and young people from 6 to 12 years to acquire basic competences and also compensates some social limitations.
