Green Reading Clubs

Cubles de Lecturas Verdes

In 2021, the Reading Clubs activity began in RECIDA (Network of Environmental Information and Documentation Centers), which aims to bring green readings with environmental content closer to citizens.

By sharing resources and experiences we want to encourage the launching of reading clubs, both in the RECIDA centers and in any other entity that wants to use our green readings. With this objective, a Working Group has been formed that meets in person and virtually at the Network's annual seminars.

The batches of books are provided by centers that are part of RECIDA.  The lots are located in CENEAM, which is responsible for sending them to the requesting centers. So far the centers that have helped this fund are: CENEAM, CEIDA-Galicia, Centro de documentación del Agua y el Medio Ambiente de Zaragoza (CDAMAZ) / Water and Environment Documentation Center of Zaragoza, Museu de Ciències Naturals de Barcelona / Museum of Natural Sciences of Barcelona, Biblioteca Pública Municipal Francisco Gómez Porro de Villarrubia de los Ojos /  Francisco Gómez Porro de Villarrubia Municipal Public Library, Biblioteca del Somontano de Barbastro / Library of Somontano de Barbastro.

This activity is framed in the Plan de Acción de Educación Ambiental para la Sostenibilidad (PAEAS) / Environmental Education Action Plan for Sustainability (PAEAS).

  • Who can request a batch of books?

    Although initially the RECIDA Reading Club was created to be held in the centers that are part of the Network, the loan of the lots is open to all types of public or private entities, educational centers, associations and other groups interested in launching a green book club.
