How Do I Use a Library?

Amidst the labyrinthine collection of books where readers and researchers can lose themselves for hours, today’s libraries have more than just printed media to offer. Patrons can check out movies, music, and video games, they can access digital resources, and they can attend classes, talks, story times, and other events. This volume helps readers navigate the physical and digital bookshelves of libraries, explaining the various types of libraries and summarizes how to use library catalogs and classification systems. Readers are guided through a short research project, encouraging them to connect information from multiple sources.
