According to data for 2025 published by the Giornale di Brescia, Sirmione ranks among the leading municipalities in the province in terms of active library users, with <strong>1,647 users<\/strong> and an index of <strong>195 users per 1,000 residents<\/strong>, equivalent to <strong>19.5%<\/strong>\u2014well above both the national and provincial averages.<\/p>\n<p>This achievement is all the more remarkable considering that Sirmione has a population of approximately 8,000, outperforming much larger municipalities in the province in terms of cultural participation. It is further confirmation of the strong bond between the local community and its library.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lisa Vettori<\/strong>, Director of the <strong>Sirmione Public Library<\/strong>, expressed her satisfaction with these results:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThese figures show that a library is much more than a place to borrow books: it is a vibrant cultural hub. Today, librarians do far more than manage a collection; they play a key role in developing high-quality cultural initiatives, creating value in a diverse, multidisciplinary environment while fostering a welcoming atmosphere and promoting intercultural and intergenerational dialogue.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/visitsirmione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/20260131-Biblioteca-Comunale-numeri2025-CDS-ART.pdf\">Leggi l&#8217;articolo completo:\u00a0 &#8220;Utenti delle biblioteche in crescita, i bresciani doppiano la media nazionale&#8221; sul Giornale di Brescia (in Italian only)<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"editor-img alignnone wp-image-132944 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/visitsirmione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/8x5-dicono-di-noi-biblioteca-ottobre-2026-826x516.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"826\" height=\"516\" srcset=\"https:\/\/visitsirmione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/8x5-dicono-di-noi-biblioteca-ottobre-2026-826x516.jpg 826w, https:\/\/visitsirmione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/8x5-dicono-di-noi-biblioteca-ottobre-2026-568x355.jpg 568w, https:\/\/visitsirmione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/8x5-dicono-di-noi-biblioteca-ottobre-2026-374x234.jpg 374w, https:\/\/visitsirmione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/8x5-dicono-di-noi-biblioteca-ottobre-2026-794x496.jpg 794w, https:\/\/visitsirmione.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/8x5-dicono-di-noi-biblioteca-ottobre-2026.jpg 1248w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 826px) 100vw, 826px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once again this year, the figures released by the Rete Bibliotecaria Bresciana (Brescia Library Network) and reported by the Giornale di Brescia confirm the vitality and central role of libraries across our region.
