From (con)experience in the library, to an eternal romance with books

The theme of reading is present in various educational research materials; however, the state of the art shows that very little of the research related to the area of reading emphasizes the school library, the space that welcomes readers and books. What happens is as if reading were disconnected from the school library, being an action and a space that do not exchange ideas and learning opportunities. The present research "From (con)experience in the library to an eternal romance with books" questions how the experience in the library space is integrated in the pedagogical proposal of the school and contributes to the achievement of lifelong readers, analysing theorists that contextualise literature and also the library and its multiplicity in school experiences. Based on qualitative research, this study met five libraries in the southern region of the country and interacted with its public, as well as with librarians, teachers and pedagogical coordinators, who illustrate the theoretical research, building reflections so that new looks can be given to this space.
