In April 2015, the Cazères-sur-Garonne municipal multimedia library opened its doors in a building whose previous uses gave no indication of its new destiny. Formerly a slaughterhouse, municipal theatre and industrial bread oven, this building is now home to one of the town’s flagship cultural facilities, and the redevelopment work has resulted in a bold architectural design. The town council’s project takes into account the needs of the town’s growing population, who are keen to find a pleasant and comfortable place to live in Cazères.
The library is dedicated to leisure, culture, information, training and documentation for all citizens, and plays a key role in the cultural and social life of the community, working in partnership with other local players such as the leisure centre, Cap Jeunes, RAM, nursery and primary schools, the Des livres et délices bookshop and the Lire et faire lire association.
The Cazères multimedia library is :
– More than 13,000 books: documentaries, novels, detective stories, science fiction, readings, theatre and poetry, comics and mangas, CD books, a collection on the history of Cazères and the Comminges;
– Around 1,000 audio CDs, covering all musical genres from jazz and rap to French chanson, rock and classical music;
– Over 600 DVDs: music, films, documentaries;
– Around 16 press and magazine subscriptions, for adults and young people.
The library also has a multimedia area with 3 computer stations in the reception area and 2 computers in the children’s section.
The media library team is at your disposal for any information you may require on the library’s operation, collections, events, etc.
