It is the result of a qualitative research on the estab-lishment of community libraries in Brazil, with a descriptive analysis emphasizing where they are, the motivation for their creation and the means for trigging these processes. It highlights the differences between enterprises created by individual and collective agents, both internal as external to the community. It defends that the specificities and the great differences among the experiments are due to the country´s re-gional and cultural distinctions. It considers those libraries as spaces for negotiation, appropriation and identity recuperation by the communities. The reading, and not information organization and processing, is the activity which permeates all the process.Downloads
