PLANAS, Javier. A rhetoric for workers’ libraries. Socialist library culture in transformation (Argentina, 1908-1920). Inf. cult. soc. [online]. 2022, n.46, pp.13-36. Epub 30-Mayo-2022. ISSN 1514-8327. http://dx.doi.org/10.34096/ics.i46.11162.
A study is presented on the library culture of socialism in Argentina (1910-1920). It analyses: (a) the messages transmitted from La Vanguardia about libraries in general; (b) the articles that the same newspaper published about the Biblioteca Obrera in particular. It is shown that the intensity and constancy of the theme created a critical library rhetoric, within which the Biblioteca Obrera exemplified good practices and the horizon to be followed. It is concluded that this preaching transmitted an idea of a library that brought together the militants of reading under the same perspective and encouraged them to form new and better experiences.
