STUDYING TODAY....AND TOMORROW
What was the last book you read?
what are your study habits like ?
Do you enjoy visiting the library?
Borrowing and returning books is much easier than you think,just get to a library near you and try it.Once upon a time the library and i were not in terms. During my high school library days i would just pick a magazine to entertain my eyes..this happens to most of us.Yes books are super important than you think ,anytime you are in doubt get a book go through and the doubt will be gone.Information retrieval and dissemination is what i love doing,digital and analog are all important to a reader,both kids and adults.
Are you the sort of person who likes the look, feel and smell of a physical book? New books especially can build that sense of excitement; that you are the first person to look at these particular pages, the first one to feel them, to read the words that the author has spent laboring over.
What about eBooks? E readers (think Kindle, Kobo,worldreader etc) these days are great for offering you the flexibility of enlarging the text, changing the background colour, the font, personalising your reading experience and getting feedback anytime.

What is a library?
What do librarians study?
Are there various types of libraries?
