LIBRARIES IN VALENCIA
Public libraries can be found in many locations across the city of Valencia and one in particular may be of interest to expats in the city. They are havens of tranquility, offering a typically studious atmosphere.
Fortunately for those English speaking, international residents who enjoy reading, some reveal a selection of books written in the English language. Of course online options are available, however, scanning the titles and letting the book choose you is perhaps a delightful concept.
The Biblioteca Pública de València Pilar Faus is a large library located centrally and easy to access. Residents as well as non residents can qualify to acquire their card and the ability to borrow books.
The library presents a good number of books written in English and other languages and there are multiple spaces to sit and browse between the covers.
