La Biblioteca Casita Azul

Casita Azul is a little bit of many things – part academic library, part resources centre, part community hub and very much a place for community engagement and reciprocity. Casita Azul is an education and learning space that supports York’s increasing socio-environmental research, education and community outreach in the south west part of Costa Rica.

Situated in the midst of the local communities in Costa Rica, Casita Azul supports and enhances York’s Eco-Campus and Study Abroad in Costa Rica while playing an important role in community engagement and wellbeing, research intensification, knowledge mobilization, citizen science, research dissemination, engagement and outreach while offering access to online and print resources and educational programs.
