La Biblioteca del Col·legi d'Advocats de Barcelona inaugura l'exposició "La 'Pepa' i les Constitucions".

La Biblioteca del Col·legi ha preparat una exposició commemorativa que inclourà exemplars de totes les constitucions espanyoles que arribaren a ser promulgades al llarg del segle XIX. La mostra serà inaugurada pel degà Pedro L. Yúfera l’1 de febrer a les 13 hores, coincidint amb Sant Raimon, i estarà oberta fins al 15 d’abril del 2012.
