Easy Reading Club Dynamic, diverse and open reading
The Mediateka has been transformed into a welcoming, integrating and connecting space. A place to meet, collaborate and share as the fulcrum of the learning experience and the approach to contemporary culture. A new habitat that offers a fresh dynamic for the activities that take place in it. The Easy Reading Clubs that started in October in the Mediateka are an example of this. In addition to the reading and the discussions around the readings, other matters suggested by the book itself, its history or the story of the writer can also be incorporated, allowing us to connect with other audiences and activities at the Centre, such as contemporary art, literary creation, music or theatre.

«Our tools are words, voices, opinions, reflections and shared experiences, always around the central theme of the book club: the books and the stories we read during each session», says Blanca Mata, the sponsor of Easy Reading in Basque. Mata explains that the group of people who meet at the Mediateka are «an example of inclusion, diversity and participation», made up of young and old people, with and without functional diversity, or people who are simply interested in learning about the experience of shared reading with other people. The books adapted to the easy reading format allow people to enjoy the classics of universal literature or versions of novels by more recent authors. «We’re going to do this in both the Spanish and Basque clubs», she says. In the case of the Basque language, «these will mostly be people who are learning the language or who aren’t in the habit of reading in Basque, but are interested in reading more literature in the Basque language in a shared way». OUR TOOLS ARE WORDS, OUR VOICES, OPINIONS, REFLECTIONS AND SHARED EXPERIENCES, ALWAYS AROUND THE CENTRAL THEME OF THE BOOK CLUB: THE BOOK AND THE STORY WE READ DURING EACH SESSION.
