FUSTER, Yanet  e  LANGELAN, Cecilia. Information and reading for female political prisoners during the military dictatorship in Uruguay. Rev. Interam. Bibliot [online]. 2010, vol.33, n.1, pp.125-139. ISSN 0120-0976.

Based on a framework provided by Library Sciences and Information Sciences, this study explores the means of access to recreational and informational texts, and the use of these texts by female prisoners in the Punta de Rieles prison during the civil-military dictatorship in Uruguay between 1973 and 1985. In a retrospective study of users, we gathered testimonies that reveal the meaning of reading as a means to transcend boundaries in a climate where basic freedoms were suppressed.

Palavras-chave : user study; military dictatorship; access to information; information use.
