New plans for Reading Promotion
The Junta de Andalucía has showed its Plan de Lectura y Bibliotecas, (Reading and Libraries Plan), (Plan LyB), starting an specific programme aimed to support school libraries and promotion reading in public education institutions. The plan will be carried out through four academic years and it involves a budget for the endowment of school libraries and the starting of new projects of reading promotion. Another interesting initiative in this plan is the creation of the Biblioteca Virtual Escolar de Andalucía (Andalucía Virtual School Library). On the other hand, the Junta de Castilla y León, has passed its Plan de Lectura, (Reading Plan), in which, among other aims, it is expected for a half of the total population, to have a card for the public library at the end of the plan, in 2010. It is a remarkable fact that the laws for public reading in this Community will be modified, and a public library is bound by this requirement in municipalities with more than 1,000 inhabitants.
