the book Count BiblioPOP. Celebrating libraries celebrates the BiblioPOP project, a library community committed to Valencian popular culture and recognized with the VI REBIUN Award for good library practices. This publication, prepared by the librarian Amparo Pons and edited by The Ethno, has relied on the active observation of Request Vizcaíno and the graphic account of Carla Boserman. BiblioPOP connects public libraries from all over the Valencian Country with the public, weaving collective stories and turning libraries into participatory and festive spaces. The book describes various activities, such as those related to gastronomy, always a meeting point: presentations and sessions linking literature (like them Culinary literary gatherings of Quatretonda) or gatherings to share knowledge about products and local culinary traditions that are vindicated in the face of oblivion (as in the Dos and Knows cycle organized by Roots i on Taste it here collaborate criminally). This vision of libraries reinforces memory and a sense of community, and makes BiblioPOP a living cultural experience, inclusive and rooted in the territory. XAVIER BENAVENT
