DUQUE-CARDONA, Natalia. Network of Rural Libraries of Cajamarca: An Affirmative Action?. Rev. Interam. Bibliot [online]. 2017, vol.40, n.1, pp.13-26. ISSN 0120-0976.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.rib.v40n1a02.

The purpose of this article is to consider the Cajamarca Rural Library Network (in Spanish, Red de Bibliotecas Rurales de Cajamarca) as an affirmative action. To do so, the first step is to contextualize the library and a culture written as the flag of the modern/euro centered project. After this, the case of the Cajamarca Rural Library Networks is studied as a possible affirmative action. Finally, a library proposal is submitted based on and with southern epistemology. An Intercultural library project also responds to the decolonization practices of a being and power via knowledge. Moreover, the theoretical methodological approach is hermeneutical- critical and part of a document review the network proposed. The article is part of a review of analog cases conducted in the framework of a research proposal on the incidence of the library in the reduction of social inequalities as the case of the public library system in the city of Medellin based on agreement 079 of 2010 framed in a doctoral program in human and social sciences at Universidad Nacional de Colombia university
