The University's Faculty of Information and Audiovisual Media is a centre with a tradition that dates back to 1915, when the Mancomunitat of Catalonia founded the Escola Superior de Bibliotecàries, the predecessor of our centre. With this long history behind it, our centre has managed to combine tradition with modernity and has adapted to the requirements of the professional and social world at each historical moment.
