Abstract

Far too many adults and children have not had especially pleasant experiences with libraries in the past. The traditional quietness was enough to scare anyone away. Ordinary people didn't exactly feel welcome inside the walls of these "storehouses of wisdom." Today's library has to develop a new image. It must leave the old passive role behind and blossom forth into active participation in the educational process.
