English abstract
The unexpected expansion of the new coronavirus or COVID-19, at the beginning of 2020, has caused alarming effects throughout the world, causing the suspension of various economic and social activities, including library services. Public libraries had to close their premises when the state of emergency was decreed in their countries and entered a period of confinement. This panorama has generated the extensive use of digital services in libraries to continue working, a fact that will be exposed in this work. In addition, some statements by specialists in the Latin American library sphere regarding the current situation are indicated. In the present study, an extended problem is obtained where it is indicated that the public libraries of Peru work "face-to-face" with limited resources, scarce specialized personnel, absence of digital services, and no visibility within their local governments. Despite this, some libraries have carried out various initiatives in the midst of this pandemic. Therefore, a series of services that Peruvian public libraries are providing in response to the COVID-19 crisis are shown, as well as some reflections from the library sphere in the country and a series of challenges for the near future.

La inesperada expansión del nuevo coronavirus o COVID-19, al inicio del 2020, ha causado efectos alarmantes en todo el mundo, provocando la suspensión de diversas actividades económicas y sociales, entre ellas, los servicios bibliotecarios. Las bibliotecas públicas tuvieron que cerrar sus locales al decretarse el estado de emergencia en sus países y entrar en un periodo de confinamiento. Este panorama ha generado el extensivo uso de los servicios digitales en las bibliotecas para continuar laborando, hecho que se expone en este trabajo. Además, se indican algunas posturas de especialistas del ámbito bibliotecario latinoamericano con respecto a la situación actual. En el presente estudio se obtiene como resultado una problemática extendida en la que se indica que las bibliotecas públicas del Perú trabajan de “modo presencial” con limitados recursos, escaso personal especializado, ausencia de servicios digitales y sin visibilidad dentro de sus gobiernos locales; a pesar de esto, algunas bibliotecas han desarrollado diversas iniciativas en medio de esta pandemia. Por tanto, se muestra una serie de servicios que están brindando las bibliotecas públicas peruanas en respuesta a la crisis de la COVID-19; también se indican algunas reflexiones del ámbito bibliotecario del país y una serie de desafíos para un futuro próximo.
