Libraries – The People’s Universities
Libraries of all types are the starting point from which citizens can have access to information on an equal basis and in a trusted and neutral environment. Library and information services are the “people’s universities”. Through their vast collections, they enable access for all members of the community to global knowledge resources, ideas and opinions thus fostering a creative and innovative society.
