Creating cultural and educational centres is a very important aspect of the development of a society. We observe the presence of these centres all over the world, especially in large cities, where there is a larger population. What happens, however, to small communities, especially those that form outside their place of origin? How do they get the information they need to keep up to date with the cultural and educational development of the country where they left off? We find a relevant answer in Spain, more precisely in cities where Romanians have formed fairly large communities, such as Madrid, Valencia or Barcelona. Although, through a brief analysis of these communities, we can see that Romanians have managed to learn Spanish, there is also a desire to have access to language, literature and culture in Romania. Therefore, several institutions such as the Cervantes Institute or the Romanian Cultural Institute in Madrid, provide Romanians on Iberian territory with books, courses and other cultural and educational activities, and the Romanian communities organize and promote these actions. Are there also libraries and other similar cultural institutions in several parts of the peninsula, which makes us wonder how these Romanian cultural funds work in Spain? This paper will answer, among others, this question and will present the system and methods applied in promoting language, Romanian literature and culture within the Romanian cultural and educational centres on Hispanic territory.
