The Viniteca has a library service, now consisting of over 150 books for consultation and specialized guides, open to anyone interested. It will be completed with the periodic incorporation of new books.
Operation:
There is a list of the books available on this website, and on the ground floor of the shop. The consultation books are kept on shelves on the third floor, and in the meeting room.
Reading and consultation procedure:
Customers will have the chance to take the books home. They will be asked to show proper identification, and a file will be opened for them, listing their personal information. They will be asked to make a deposit equivalent to the book’s purchase price. Once the book is returned, the deposit will be refunded. In an effort to promote the use of the library, customers will be given a number when they return their borrowed books. This number is for a bimonthly drawing for a bottle of wine, or other wine-related equipment or article.
The purpose of this service is to promote knowledge and dissemination of wine culture.
Press archive:
The viniteca (thanks to its subscriptions) has the main Spanish periodical wine publications, and some of the leading international ones, on hand. They can be consulted in the same way as the library books.
Legal Archive:
The viniteca has a legislative collection, to be added to in future, including the legislation in force in the world of wine. It can also be consulted by anyone who requests access (photocopies are also provided).
