Information has been found saying that every library has near 230 books each, meaning that the total available could be well over 100000, a cipher that can not be trusted, since a list of all the locations is not available. The network works on a volunteering basis, with little professional help if any. There is no sign about modernization, nor about a referred urban unit probably focused in larger cities, usually a district capital. Districts are the usual units under provinces in Peru. A province can be considered as a county in the U.S. The location on the map can be trusted and has been verified in two places, out of the main highways.
