Away from public facing traditional services, Portuguese public libraries had to adapt to new pandemic reality. This paper aims to analyse what were the challenges and the strategies adopted by Portuguese public libraries, namely using Facebook, from a sample of 18 libraries, one of each Portuguese district. Also, we can concluded that the National Public Libraries Network (RNBP), coordinated by the Directorate General for Books, Archives and Libraries (DGLAB), was of great importance on encouraging and engaging online initiatives. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/92400 | ISSN: | 2241 - 1925 | Rights: | openAccess |
