Abstract

Medellin Library Parks represent a successful case of urban planning that constructed a social pact for the city of Medellin (Colombia), which transitioned from being one of the most violent cities in the world to the most innovative one. This work presents the Medellin Library Parks initiative as research, socialization, education, recreation and leisure spaces; their conceptualization as a new kind of public library, the strategic plan behind them, their results, awards and potential influence in other Latin American countries.
