Thursday, April 23 in Turin was held in Biennale of Democracy, the meeting entitled "Urban Places of democracy," made by the Foundation of the Order of Architects of Turin. In this article you can find the account of the meeting here while the text of the invitation to participate. With the delay we had to say that we might have added the libraries.
Libraries everywhere
clay tablets from the royal palace of Sardanapalus the volumes of the national library of France created by Perrault, we realize that libraries, as well as to characterize all periods of history, I am also a bit ' everywhere. I am a bit 'like parsley, You can pretend not to know but you insinuate the same in your tracks: so we know the New York Public Library since its release Ghostbusters, the Library of Congress since Redford and Hoffman began visiting her at the time of All men the President or the library unidentified with Sean Connery who investigates it The Name of the Rose.
space of A Tale
well see the space of the story should be the book to browse quell'oggettino watching that one quickly the significance of extrinsic value. Yet many small objects together form a volume of considerable scope (when there were clay tablets was still worse). The human response is the creation and organization of a place where the story may dwell on hold to return to live in the minds of some readers. The container of containers of the story: the library.
But not only container, is also the place where the books become the protagonists without exposing themselves, docile dormant waiting to be browsed and read, economic issues which divide the bookshelves with paperback books with color plates, the highest moments of literature forced to rest alongside the bestsellers that are sold on newsstands. Good book, exasperated neighbors Burini sometimes disappears (basically back then), someone else goes to get a holiday in binding. We like to imagine it is at night that the library comes to life, which come on without literary controversies between outcomes feuilleton and picaresque novels, the science fiction chase through the shelves with fantasy novels, the comics urlacchino onomatopoeic sounds to awaken historical novels who continue to sleep, that thrillers children's books tell of horror stories to scare them and Armony's flirt with books of poetry among the shelves.
Apart imaginative visions to the library's story actually is not soul, it takes the form (as in the theater or cinema), but sleepy lives between the pages yellowed and creased covers, hides at the bottom of a shelf, rests among his peers with no particular ambitions. And space books and their stories is a place in some ways still mysterious, ruled by silence and unwritten rules, the place of research and sharing.
Sharing
real age of the internet sharing is now a concept that more established, but it is expressed mostly in virtual spaces, spaces that do not exist where people meet. The library is in this sense is the sharing of real space, the exact opposite of the virtual one, is a physical space in which they share many common knowledge, but where users do not meet, or if there is not calculated, the library and space-sharing but not the comparison or meeting (such as squares and markets). It is also an area that represents democracy (think of the books is not matched in order of importance without any kind of preferential treatment) a space where you are free to choose their own book, shared by all age groups and with the wikipedia 'last bastion of free knowledge.

Turin experience: the BCT
places Telling the story becomes more complicated, but libraries are also architectures and as such characterize the city. Libraries in Turin are also building their dormant, sly, take a little 'air in the parquet of the city such as pensioners, are placed in old buildings precious. They are places to visit, each characterized by its elements and its librarians, each of the books that are not elsewhere. There is a library in the old public toilets, there is one in a mill, a farmhouse, was in a barracks, two are in luxurious villas, many reside in small parks and green oasis of tranquility, that is all the worth going there for a book and also for the library itself.
