Notable figure
Rosalia Guilleumas i Brosa
A graduate in Romance Philology, she specialised in the study of Ramon Llull and Jacint Verdaguer. In 1954 she received the Manuel de Montoliu Prize for her work Ramon Llull en l’obra de Jacint Verdaguer (Barcelona: Barcino, 1953). She led several national libraries, most notably holding simultaneous directorship between 1973 and 1980 of the University and Provincial Library of Barcelona, the Library of Catalonia, the School of Librarians, and the Public Libraries Service of the Barcelona Provincial Council. After decades of stagnation of these four institutions under the dictatorship, Rosalia Guilleumas succeeded in bringing modernity and professionalism to them.
