| Sumario: | The institutional growth experienced by the Bernardino Rivadavia Association (Bahía Blanca, province of Buenos Aires) since the 1930s can be explained from its relationship with phenomena of different nature and scale that are analyzed through institutional sources such as minutes, memoirs, balance sheets and press. On the one hand, the expansion of its popular library dialogues internally with the relatively successful implementation of public policies for the promotion of professionalized library activity established by the provincial and national spheres, as well as with the growth of its membership. On the other hand, the strengthening of the entity is firmly intertwined with the continuity of practices linked to the representations of modernization and progress, deepened since the 1940s by the social, economic and educational transformation of the Buenos Aires locality, which thus promoted its longed-for hegemony over the Patagonian region. In this sense, the association and its library assumed a role of stimulating literate culture and cultural irradiation in the south of the country which, in material terms, deepened and diversified the systematic crises surrounding its economic sustainability and its operating model. |
