Now in Rome you can study in museums, too

Dec 14, 2023 807

Rome is the first city in Italy to equip itself with a network of study rooms within its library and museum system. The goal is to provide students with a series of spaces that are also open in the evening hours and on holidays, located throughout the city, carving them out precisely in places intended to preserve and disseminate culture.

Starting in 2024, an online portal will network all classrooms, to communicate their locations, opening hours, and organizational rules. The study rooms of the newborn network will be framed as civic spaces, not necessarily related to the consultation of books, so that they can become aggregation spaces tout court, designed for reading and study.

To coordinate their management, however, will be the Libraries of Rome system, which, however, will be able to count not only on spaces already administered so far, but also on rooms obtained at other municipal facilities, and on spaces managed by third parties within the Capitoline heritage, or places of public or private property outside the City.
