Summary: This work aims to present numismatic exhibition as a cultural mediation practice developed throughout the year 2018 by the librarian of a professional education school in the private system of the city of Linhares in the State of Espírito Santo. The methods of documentary research, bibliographic research, and participant research were adopted. The results are described as follows: Initially, a brief theoretical framework about the theme 'cultural mediation practice' in libraries is presented, then the project is described, and the achieved results as a mediation practice are exposed. Still within the realm of results, it was found that numismatic documents such as banknotes and coins, resources provided by the school community for the composition of the exhibition, were used. It was possible to conclude that the aforementioned practice is within the realm of mediation, as it integrated, that is, managed to engage the public in cultural activity within the library space, thus democratizing the space. From the description, the aim was to present and to some extent understand how this practice was carried out in terms of cultural mediation, and its relationship with the guiding principles of the pedagogical practice of the Senai Professional Education Methodology, thus pointing out an associative and complementary relationship. Therefore, it is concluded that the numismatic exhibition as a cultural mediation practice in the Senai library in Linhares offered contributions to Senai's activities, mainly in the educational field. However, a more in-depth analysis of the results is recommended, as well as a continuous commitment to adopting cultural mediation practices in libraries, archives, museums and other spaces.
