A SCHOOL LIBRARY
A library is a part and parcel of an educational institution. It is a room or a building or a part of an institution where books, newspapers, magazines and journals are kept for students to read, use or to borrow. The importance of a school library is immense. The school library is meant for students and teachers who can use the library to enrich their knowledge. Our school also has a good library from which students can borrow books. It is located in the ground floor of the school building. In our library, there are numerous books on various subjects such as science, history, philosophy, politics, our culture and so on. Students borrow books according to their interest, taste or curiosity. Books are arranged neatly but alphabetically in the shelves. Two persons are there in our library to help the students. The, librarian is a helpful man. He not only finds books from the shelves but also gives us useful advice and information about books. This he can do because he knows his books. The assistant librarian is a lover of books and takes interest in both books and students. He helps us find confined books to read in the library. He issues books to the students against their library cards. We can borrow a book for a week. Our head teacher is a very wise and prudent person. He always tries his best to promote our library. So, whenever students feel any lack of book and inform him of it, he meets it. Thus, our library is getting richer day by day. I do feel proud of our school library which is well-managed by the librarian and his assistant.
