Libraries are of great use to students and general public. They are necessary part of our life now. Their uses are many. First of all, we can get most of the books that we need from a standard library. Libraries contain expensive books most of them we can't buyout we can easily borrow them from library.

Students of science as well as of arts can study their courses with help of library books. Poor students can get books of their choice from library. Teachers can teach well after reading books regarding their field. They can get old as well as new books of their subject.
The people working in different professions can get books from libraries to learn ways off becoming more efficient like farmer can get books on farming and doctor can get books on medicine from library.

We can get books for entertainment from library. We\can get books on novels, stories and so on. Our country needs more libraries which may be well equipped and comfortable. Small towns and villages should also have suitable libraries. In any case reading habits will have to be developed among our people before they start using library fruitfully. Definitely we cannot make proper progress without enough libraries of standard quality and without a vast reading public.
