Resumen
Today the design and development of new services, products, and
spaces at libraries must be supported by an architectural design that
reinforces the role of the institution as a regular meeting place, a
space to get together, fully integrated into its urban setting, with
services and spaces that are articulated and go beyond the physical
limits of the institution. The aim of this paper is to describe the
proposed renovation of the central patio and the spaces that sur -
round it at Martí Provincial Library in Cuba. This renovation will
allow the library to offer new services under the concept of a Library
Park, that is to say, an area for citizen empowerment and community
development. This report also emphasizes the need to confront the
changes that the library must do in those spaces to become an ideal
location for the community to find recreation, training, and needed
information
