The Library and its Website

By Victor H. Benítez

Human beings are inherently social, being rational individuals they are not self-suficient and require the assistance and protection of others, and thus live in communities governed by rules with objectives to be achieved.  

In today’s world, technology is our principal tool of work.  These digital platforms were created by the constant need of people to share their achievements or their questions that others can help them solve. 

The importance or need for these networks is undeniable, every day the number of such websites grows and they become more specialized. For example, consider the publication of videos, photos, or other information which the author wishes to transmit to remote places and to important people.  Platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube are very useful and necessary.  And, in the case that you want to contact someone professionally, you do it through an email or a webpage.  

Today, much of daily living is related to the need to share everything and thus the importance of web pages where you detail everything that is the essence of your endeavor, its history, its activities, and its principal achievements.  

In the Public Library we always find ourselves improving communication among our users, in order to continuously enhance access to information.  Thanks to our Department of Technologies and Communication (TIC´s) that helps with the growth of these platforms, we respond to the needs of our users.  The staff makes use of work meetings, analysis of data, and observing the behavior of our users to always move our efforts forward. Thus we are changing the methods of communication person by person, and with institutions as well.

As a result of the specialization of our social networks, one can access information in a segmented and classified manner through use of official webpages, including ours; www.labibliotecapublica.org which is in a constant state of evolution and updating.  The Public Library of San Miguel de Allende counts on many tools of study and measurement to successfully address the needs of our users and deliver the best to our public.

We invite you to visit us, walk together with us, and participate in our events, workshops, and classes that teach and share in our Public Library of San Miguel de Allende, A.C.  Contact cm@labibliotecapublica.org
