(A library) isn’t just a library. It is a spaceship that will take you to the farthest reaches of the universe… and most of all, a gateway, to a better and happier and more useful life.
, American author and professor
Many needs of the community are met at the Library: computer services, socialization opportunities, magazines, books, story time for children and assistance and guidance with research projects. Truly, Libraries are very essential components of a community.
