This Plan promotes the consolidation of popular libraries as spaces for access, digital inclusion and socially significant knowledge production. It seeks to expand opportunities for access to information, knowledge and exchanges for popular libraries users, and foster networking between libraries, especially in the most disadvantaged sectors due to geographical, economic and social reasons.
Specifically, it provides support for Internet connectivity and computer equipment and hardware, as well as library management software, an online Collective Catalog and remote procedures and services via the agency's portal. Libraries are supported through training on topics related to information and communication technologies (ICTs). Librarian technical assistance is also provided for the improvement of library management systems.
