The Bfm of Limoges has made its 'Pages et partage' workshops permanent and formalized their practices into a practical guide aimed at improving access to reading and the French language.

After four years of existence, the 'Pages et partage' workshops, which aim to create moments of pleasure around words, books, and culture, have been integrated into the general animation offerings of the Bfm of Limoges. These workshops, held in a warm and accessible setting, help participants become familiar with the library and its collections.
The practical guide, a result of these workshops, was created in collaboration with the Centre ressources illettrisme analphabétisme Nouvelle-Aquitaine. It was published by Mes mains en or, a publishing house specializing in adapted children's books, with funding from the Drac Nouvelle-Aquitaine.
The workshops primarily target adults and young adults facing difficulties with the French language, including those with literacy challenges or individuals of foreign origin, whether French-speaking or not. They are open to organized groups and individuals.
This guide aims to open up perspectives for anyone wishing to offer activities to audiences who are distant from reading, whether within public spaces like libraries or in any other setting.
