The Josep Roca i Bros Library in Abrera has launched new initiatives to promote reading and collaboration with educational centers and local entities, including the Traveling Backpacks service and a donation of magazines to the Senior Citizens' Center.

The Traveling Backpacks service is once again available for schools and entities in the Abrera municipality. This initiative aims to foster reading habits and bring library resources closer to all citizens, offering materials adapted to different ages and educational projects.
Additionally, the library has donated specialized magazines on patchwork and crafts to the sewing workshop at the Casal de la Gent Gran d’Abrera (Senior Citizens' Center), responding to participants' requests. The publications include patterns, techniques, and ideas to inspire their creations.
The material was delivered by the Councilor for Cultural Heritage and Historical Memory, Arantxa Galofré, who spent time with the workshop members, which meets every Monday.
The Abrera City Council and the Josep Roca i Bros Library continue to work on strengthening collaboration with municipal groups and entities, providing resources that contribute to their activities and the cultural and community life of Abrera.
