Resumen de Les biblioteques populars de la Mancomunitat: un projecte polític i un projecte bibliotecari
- català
Les biblioteques populars o públiques que impulsà la Mancomunitat de Catalunya, creades a imatge i semblança de les pioneres biblioteques anglosaxones, foren un model innovador dins del panorama bibliotecari d’Espanya. Al seu èxit contribuí tant la figura d’Eugeni d’Ors, responsable del projecte inicial que establí com havien de ser les biblioteques i quina havia de ser la formació del personal a l’Escola de Bibliotecàries, com la de Jordi Rubió, director de la Biblioteca de Catalunya, que el succeí com a director de la xarxa de biblioteques que implantà definitivament un sistema bibliotecari a Catalunya.

The popular or public libraries which were promoted by the Mancomunitat de Catalunya, created in the image and likeness of the pioneer anglosaxon libraries, became an innovative model within the panorama of Spanish libraries. Eugeni d´Ors contributed much to that success. He was the person responsible for the initial project who established how the libraries would be along with the training of personnel at l'Escola de Bibliotecàries. Another person who contributed to its success was Jordi Rubió, director of the Biblioteca de Catalunya (the Library of Catalonia), who succeeded Eugeni d'Ors as the director of the network of libraries and who finally established a library system in Catalonia.
