To analyze the supply, the Directory of Public Libraries provided by the National Library of Colombia is used, and the data of demand for libraries is analyzed through a probit econometric model, using microdata from the Cultural Consumption Survey implemented by the National Department of Statistics (DANE). The results obtained from this research show the geographical distribution of the supply of public libraries in the country, by regions and departments, and in the analysis of the demand, it can be determined that the educational level is the most decisive factor in the use of the public library. In general, this study reveals that young and single people are those who are most likely to use these facilities as well as women and people who are inactive. 2023 artículo científico 2248-6046 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=323577432002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3235/323577432002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3235/323577432002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3235/323577432002/323577432002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3235/323577432002/movil https://doi.org/10.14718/revfmanzpolitecon.v15.n2.2023.2 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3235 Revista Finanzas y Política Económica application/pdf Universidad Católica de Colombia Revista Finanzas y Política Económica (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.15
