CEBALLOS OSPINA, Johnny Alejandro. The role of public library social inclusion in the street dweller (homeless). Investig. bibl [online]. 2018, vol.32, n.76, pp.63-78. ISSN 2448-8321.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iibi.24488321xe.2018.76.57976.

The public library is a conspicuous place for those homeless due to free services and facilities. This article aims to show how the library in its social, cultural and educational, can be part of the social transformation of their environment, creating inter-institutional cooperation alliances, developing actions and strategies on social inclusion and improving conditions of people in street. Therefore, public library should not be oblivious to the realities and challenges of the community it serves.
