Barcelona is extending the opening hours of several libraries and study rooms, including the Montserrat Abelló library in Les Corts, to support students preparing for the PAU university entrance exams.
The measure gives students more access to quiet places to study during a busy exam period. It is aimed at helping young people in the city manage their revision time more easily.
According to the Barcelona City Council, the extended hours are a response to higher demand for study spaces at this time of year. The PAU exams are an important step for students seeking access to higher education in Catalonia.
Montserrat Abelló is one of the facilities taking part, and other study rooms across Barcelona are also included. That means the support is spread across different neighbourhoods, not just one part of the city.
The longer opening hours will stay in place throughout the examination period. Readers can follow more local education coverage on our news page.
