Biblioteca Estadual do Piauí, Public library and historic site in Teresina, Brazil

The Biblioteca Estadual do Piauí occupies a former law school building in downtown Teresina, featuring reading rooms and educational facilities.

Founded on June 21, 1910, by Governor Antonino Freire da Silva, the library emerged from earlier attempts to establish literary institutions in Teresina since 1867.

The library functions as the central organ of the State Public Library System of Piauí, collecting and preserving bibliographic materials about the region.

Located at Praça Demóstenes Avelino, the library provides reading spaces, community programs, and access to educational resources in Brazilian Portuguese.

The building received heritage status in 1994 and maintains its original early 20th-century architectural elements while offering modern library services.
