Books cost a fortune and this means that not every body can afford to buy many useful reference books. There are many people who crave for knowledge but are unable to satisfy their needs due to lack of money. Libraries can help solve this problem.
Libraries are important to people whether it is a developed or developng country. Well-maintained libraries in each town are gift to the people. It is very much a basic need fow students ranging from the secondary school children to the college students. The public too can make use of the library for a leisure reading and to gain more knowledge thereby making good use of their free time.
A well maintainted library should have a wide selection of books. They should have books on almost all subjects such as science, literature, Enghlish, art, history, philosophy, engineering, medicine, technology. In addition, newspaper, magazines and periodicals should be avaible. Hard cover story books, paperback, novels, plays, should also be avaible in abundance. They should be neatly arranged by sections and labelled easy access.
I think libraries and books are very necessary for everyday life because they widen our knowledge, and help us relax after working.
