Abstract

Adiagnosis of the motivation efforts carried in the public libraries of Mexico City in order to improve the attendance of children is presented. Both the perspectives of librarians and children were researched. For this, bibliohemerographic information, direct observation and questionnaires were used. 91,57% of the librarians answered that they were carrying out motivation tasks. Almost all the children had attended a public library at least once and many were frequently using it. However, motivation is not well developed in most public libraries in Mexico City. Most libraries do not have a motivation programme, and when it is addressed, it is usually inadequate
