Biblioteca delle Oblate, Public and children's library in central Florence, Italy

Biblioteca delle Oblate is a public and children's library in central Florence, housed in the 14th-century Oblate complex near Piazza Duomo. It occupies three floors: the ground floor holds the reception, conference room, children's section, newspaper room, and local history collection; the first floor houses the contemporary section; the second floor the contemporary/science and technology section. The building was renovated before reopening in 2007.

The library was created in 1913, when Florence approved regulations for its municipal library and historical archive, and was first housed in Palazzo Vecchio. In 1953 it moved to the 14th-century Oblate complex and became the city's central municipal library. After renovation work, it reopened on 25 May 2007 under the name Biblioteca delle Oblate.

The library takes its name from the trecento Complesso delle Oblate that houses it. Its collection of about 100,000 volumes, 40,000 on open shelves, is specialised in the cultural, political and administrative history of Florence and Tuscany, and includes the Boncinelli and Tordi bequests and documents of the Istria, Fiume and Dalmatia fund. In March 2021 the library's altana was named after Marielle Franco.

The library occupies three floors: the ground floor holds the reception, the children's and young people's section, the newspaper room and the local history and conservation room; the contemporary section is on the first floor and contemporary/science and technology on the second. The building is a few steps from Piazza del Duomo in the historic centre. The Marielle Franco altana, named in March 2021, is reached from the upper floors.

The library's rooftop loggia, known as the altana, was named after Marielle Franco in March 2021. The building itself is the trecento Complesso delle Oblate, a former convent from which the library takes its name. The library holds about 100,000 volumes, 40,000 of them on open shelves, plus the Boncinelli and Tordi bequests and documents on Istria, Fiume and Dalmatia.
