Economia della Cultura, 2022, issue 2-3, 281-288

Abstract: The vast majority of public-reading libraries that meet the citizens’ need for information and documentation, in Italy, belong to municipalities. The difficulties they face in managing the most widespread and important national cultural infrastructure – with heavy territorial inequalities andstructural lacks – require a new overall strategy for the promotion of reading. In making proposals for action, we also take in the good practices that have emerged in recent years in reading promotion policies and the main legislative interventions
