It presents a study of the Arthur Vianna Public Library based on concepts made available through the IFLA / UNESCO Manifesto for Public Libraries of 1994 and the IFLA Guidelines for Public Libraries. It aims to analyze and study the manifest and guidelines and to verify to what extent the Arthur Vianna Public Library recognizes and agrees with these documents. The literature review and qualitative empirical study, obtained through observation, interview, application of questionnaires and analysis of documents, were used for this purpose. It notes that the main public library in Pará is valued and appreciated by its users who believe that improvements are being applied, it has services that fit its main mission and recognizes that it is one of the instruments that the state has to improve the lives of its citizens, Providing quiet, comfortable and dynamic environments and actions that go beyond the walls of the library. Yet there is a problem related to the lack of an enlightened study that allows the library to know the emergency problems that the community has and works them, which prevents it from reaching the public that in fact needs its resources and service and is unaware of it.
