The São Paulo State Department of Education, as of the 2009, implemented the Reading Room Program in all schools in the education system, considering them as privileged spaces to encourage reading, a source of information, entertainment and formation of the critical, creative and autonomous reader.The objective of this research was to verify the professional identity, teacher training and mediation practices in the Reading Room Program. The impacts of the Program on the teaching performance were analyzed in three public schools in a city in western São Paulo. The qualitative research approach, of the case study type, was assumed in the Bakhtinian historical-cultural perspective. Data collection focused on documentary analysis and on semi-structured interviews with three teachers, responsible for the Reading Room. The results pointed out both the enthusiasm of teachers and access to books, magazines and newspapers, made possible by the actions of stimulation of reading, as well as weaknesses in the conditions offered by the State, which compromised the mediating performance of these professionals.

Keywords : paulista program reading room; teaching action; historical-cultural processes.
