English abstract
Cultural activities are now a core rather than a peripheral aspect of library services, and they serve a wide range of purposes: they help to foster a love of reading, attract new users, give the library a social presence, raise awareness of its services and collections, promote culture – both general and local – and maintain close ties with the community, whilst also building networks of collaboration. Furthermore, they generate less visible but highly valuable effects, such as strengthening social cohesion, alleviating unwanted loneliness, mitigating the fear of decline or dependency, boosting self-esteem and, ultimately, improving emotional well-being and mental health.
Spanish abstract
Las actividades culturales son hoy día un servicio bibliotecario estructural y no accesorio, que tiene una utilidad muy amplia: ayudan a despertar el gusto por la lectura, atraer a nuevos usuarios, dar presencia social a la biblioteca, visibilizar sus servicios y colecciones, difundir la cultura -tanto general como local- y mantener un contacto cercano con la comunidad, tejiendo además redes de colaboración. Además, generan efectos menos visibles pero muy valiosos, como el refuerzo de la cohesión social, el alivio de la soledad no deseada, la mitigación del miedo al deterioro o la dependencia, el aumento de la autoestima y, en definitiva, la mejora del bienestar emocional y de la salud mental.
