The theoretical reference was based in studies regarding the Public Library. As for the methodology, it had, as its main aspect, the documental analysis, complemented by researches and theoretical sources. The documents which have been analyzed have official origin such as reports and the legislation, as well, as unofficial ones, such as newspapers articles. These documents have made it possible a contraposition related to favourable and unfavourable opinions about the Library. The favourable opinions are usually provided by the Municipal Administration and the Library Direction.
