The book loves digital
The GRAND SALON project comes from a desire to make quality, recent and varied books available to everyone in physical and digital format. It is a technological space where digital technology helps bring together and bring to us the equivalent of a 5-story library. Finally, it is a play space, to learn with pleasure and joy.
The GRAND SALON aims to be an open and evolving space, offering resources in various formats: e-books, articles, videos, audio recordings, online courses, and much more. We seek to promote linguistic, intellectual and cultural diversity with a particular emphasis on black culture, providing content in multiple languages and encouraging the representation of different perspectives and knowledge.
