BARATA, Paulo J. S.. As bibliotecas no liberalismo: definição de uma política cultural de regime. []. , 174, pp.37-63. ISSN 0003-2573.

^lpt^aAborda-se a acção do Depósito das Livrarias dos Extintos Conventos, organismo público criado em 1834 pelo regime liberal para assegurar a arrecadação e a distribuição das livrarias dos conventos extintos, teorizando sobre a existência, subjacente àquela, de uma política cultural estrutural ao próprio regime e que visava o estabelecimento de um sistema integrado de bibliotecas. Esplana-se a coerência dos princípios dessa política, sublinhando-se os constrangimentos, os bloqueios e os desvios que aconteceram na implementação da mesma. Decorrente dessa política, teoriza-se sobre o emergir de um novo paradigma de biblioteca, a biblioteca pública, por oposição ao modelo de biblioteca privada que vigorava no Antigo Regime.^lfr^aL'auteur aborde l'action du Dépôt des Librairies des Couvents Eteints, un organisme créé en 1834 par le régime libéral pour assurer le recouvrement et la distribution des librairies des couvents éteints, en théorisant sur l'existence sous-jacente d'une politique culturelle, structurelle au régime et qui visait établir un système intégré de bibliothèques. L'article expose la cohérence des principes de cette politique, tout en soulignant les contraintes, les blocages et les déviances qui se sont produits lors de sa mise en oeuvre. Comme conséquence de cette politique, il théorise sur l'émergence d'un nouveau paradigme de bibliothèque, la bibliothèque publique, par opposition au modèle de bibliothèque privée en vigueur sous l'Ancien Régime.^len^aThis article deals with the activities of the Depósito das Livrarias dos Extintos Conventos (Depository for the Libraries of Abolished Convents), a public body established in 1834 by the liberal government in order to safeguard the storage and distribution of books collected from the libraries of the convents which had been abolished. It speculates on whether these concerns were guided by an underlying cultural policy specific to that regime, the aim of which was to establish an integrated library system. The article explains the cohesiveness of the principles of such a policy, stressing the constraints, the blockages and the diversions which arose as it was implemented. Also discussed in connection with the policy is the theory that a new library model was emerging, that of the public library, as opposed to the private library which prevailed under the Old Regime.
