Abstract
RENDON-GALVIS, Sindy Catherine and JARVIO-FERNANDEZ, Antonia Olivia. The use of ICT to promote reading in public libraries with the intervention of librarians. Investig. bibl [online]. 2020, vol.34, n.83, pp.129-144. Epub Dec 09, 2020. ISSN 2448-8321. https://doi.org/10.22201/iibi.24488321xe.2020.83.58095.
The 21st century brings with it a series of transformations that impact all areas of society. Discursive processes have evolved to more complex forms and reading has acquired greater importance at integrating new communicative expressions, such as multimodality. The teaching of reading requires a change in methodology and content, a challenge that education has to face without delay. Libraries, as irreplaceable means to provide information, need to adjust their objectives for helping in the task of multiliteracy. The promotion of reading is a consubstantial activity to library tasks and technology can be of great value to approach users to the texts. This paper presents an intervention project to promote reading using ICT’s, which was carried out with a library group of public libraries. This accompaniment showed a positive impact to the tasks of librarians as well as the need for training in reading promotion using ICT.
