Abstract

It aims to describe the solidarity actions and the incentive to read, emphasizing the importance and the necessity of acting of the university libraries on the campuses outside of headquarters, because there is the lack in the interiors. It emphasizes that the library must go beyond the walls of the university, allowing interaction with the external community. In this context, two campaigns of solidarity (Christmas campaign solidarity) and partnerships such as the one held with the caravan of reading, which allowed playful activities of incentive to read with two public schools children, in addition to the partnership between the University and the municipality in the dissemination of information on the care of pregnancy and the baby. Thus, the University library demonstrates its social role for the internal and external community of the university, contributing to human development.
