E-raamat: The library in the service of school students

The author of "The Art of Libraries in the Service of Youth", Mrs. Ethel Fair, who worked as a teacher of library art in American universities, chose for her book a title that reveals both its goal and the goal of the library. The book does not address the art of libraries in general, but specializes in libraries designated for children, whether they are public libraries or attached to primary schools. The goal of these libraries is to serve young people, which is an educational goal in addition to being primarily an educational role.The book addresses the librarian, in general, and the children''s librarian in kindergartens and primary schools - in particular - in an effort to raise the librarian''s efficiency so that the children''s library achieves its desired purpose. It reminds the librarian of his role, by providing many services such as: counseling and direction service, which is one of the necessary services provided by the public library, advice and guidance, ensuring that he performs his role to the fullest.The book''s direct interest in the librarian implies a great interest in the reader who intends it. Librarians and information specialists'' primary job is to serve the reader and researcher.
