Today the Library can fully fulfill a primary function for the human being, that of the integral formation of the person, in increasing inner freedom, in spite of today’s trend of entrusting narration to communication majors. Following the suggestions of Zygmunt Bauman, for whom post-modernity consists of openings and closings, in the continuous search for an ever more complete sense of identity, and those of the philosopher Paul Ricoeur, based on the possibility of reformulating personal identity starting from narration, it is possible to experience the role of the Library as a place in which to take care of one’s inner truth, in the continuous rediscovery of new horizons of meaning.
