Biblioteca Estadual de Niterói, State library in Centro, Niterói, Brazil.
The Biblioteca Estadual de Niterói occupies a neoclassical building at Republic Square, containing over 60,000 items including books, magazines, newspapers, and digital media.
The library building, designed by Italian-Brazilian architect Pietro Campofiorito, opened in 1935 during celebrations marking Niterói's centennial as a city and state capital.
The institution maintains collections spanning the 16th through 18th centuries, plus dedicated sections for music, theater, and children's literature, serving multiple generations of readers.
Visitors can access materials in multiple formats, including Braille books and adapted computers, with staff available to assist with research and document retrieval.
The structure received heritage status from INEPAC in 1983 and underwent restoration in 2011, returning to its original architectural specifications.
