Summary/Abstract: According to a definition given by the sociologist M. Moldoveanu, cultural animation consists on stimulating human interest for the culturalactivities and ideas arround them. Its purpose is to offer the people the feeling of being a part of a cultural community.Bertrand Calenge considers that readers can be divided into 3 groups: children, adults and old people. For each of those three categories, animation must be done in a different way.Children must come to the library at an early age. There are social programmes for them, such as: painting exibitions (with their own works), different competitions and games etc. A very important segment of public is represented by teenagers, because they represent the future adults. They have to be conscious of the necessity of culture and books in their future career.The growing-up category of readers might be divided in two main categories: women (70%) and men. Women seems to be more interested in reading. They are responsable for children education, while men preffer to watch TV or – some of them, especially graduates – to read scientific books.Old people have a lot of spare time and for them, librairies should get newspapers, should organize different club houses: bridge, checkmate etc.
