Sharing and Heritage at the Paul Eluard Library
Library celebrating its 70 years of official existence. Since 1953, animation is provided only by volunteers. Its founders aimed to "introduce classical and contemporary authors from all over the world, to have as a basis an authentic progressive and popular literature" and to add, "live in peace in a better world". Still today, with its background of some 35000 works, the aim is to allow everyone to think for himself, to make aware that being a citizen means participating in political life at all levels (local, regional, national) to become "citizen of the world". This is why the library is an association that declares itself citizen because "beyond the satisfaction of its members, it intends to address the general interest and concern itself with the common good.
