VERUCCHIO – The “Don Milani” municipal library of Villa Verucchio participates in the 15th edition of Bibliopride, the national week of pride in libraries and librarians, with the presentation of the book “The secrets of the Wandering Valley” by Raffaello Fabbri. The appointment is for Friday 2 October at 9pm in the “A. Tondini” conference room of the library.
The 2026 edition of Bibliopride, coordinated by the Italian Library Association, is dedicated to the courage and role of libraries in promoting freedom of reading and free access to ideas, in social inclusion and in the fight against misinformation.
For the occasion, the “Don Milani” Library has chosen to connect the initiative to the anniversary of the transit of Saint Francis and the passage of the Saint in the lands of the territory. At the center of the meeting will be the volume “The secrets of the Wandering Valley”, published by Youcanprint in 2026, in which Fabbri addresses the construction of the hagiography of Francis of Assisi after his death, focusing on the role of the ecclesiastical hierarchies and on the “Legenda major” of Bonaventura da Bagnoregioat the time general of the Franciscan order.
The author will talk to the librarian Lisetta Bernardi. The Councilor for Culture and Tourism will be present for the municipal administration Maria Antonietta Pazzini.
The presentation is free to enter and does not require reservations. For information you can contact the “Don Milani” municipal library on 0541 671166 or at biblioteca@comune.verucchio.rn.it.
