PARADA, Alejandro E.. Typology of the Argentine Libraries since the Hispanic Period to 1830: A First Provisional Classification. Inf. cult. soc. [online]. 2003, n.9, pp.75-94. ISSN 1514-8327.

This article tries to outline a brief classification of the different types of existing libraries in the present Argentine territory since the Hispanic domination to 1830. The typology adopted is, above all, a provisional approach greatly rectifiable. The contribution is aimed, in general terms, to whom start the study of the history of the books, libraries, and reading in Argentina. In that sense, the quoted bibliography tries to substitute the lack of study guides on the subject. The identified libraries belong to: institutions or religious corporations; private individuals; foreigners societies (i.e.: belonging to a society); educational institutes; and cathedral public libraries; conventual public libraries; public libraries; circulating libraries (and reading rooms); and libraries made to order or offered by businessmen.

Palabras clave : History of the Libraries; Typologies; Libraries; Argentine Libraries; Hispanic Period; 1810-1830.
