Sumario:In their travel tales, Labat, Silhouette, Peyron and Bourgoing include nu- merous reections they made while staying in Spain. The former two visited the country briey, whereas the latter two enjoyed a long stay. Yet that difference did not prevent any of them from noticing some Spanish libraries, which they perceived as a sign of erudition and as a desire for cultural dissemination. Whether public or private, con- ventual or secular, those libraries awoke the interest of the aforementioned French eighteenth-century travellers for various reasons, such as the identity of their owners, the characteristics of their book collections, their location, their ornamentation or the opening hours of those libraries.
