description This article has two main objectives. The first, reconstruct the process that gave rise to popular libraries in Chile from the political, ideological and cultural context of the mid-nineteenth century. The second, seeks to analyze the role played by Domingo Faustino Sarmiento as a promoter of this public policy. The sources on which this study is constructed are mainly press articles, official documents and contemporary books, places where the trace of that early truncated initiative was recorded. From the above, it was possible to identify how the popular libraries project, devised by Sarmiento, was born from the need that existed to promote the book and guide reading practice, based on clearly defined and shared utility criteria by the ruling elite. In addition, it was verified how Sarmiento's ideas about popular education and his own interests in the printing business converged in this library project.
