Visionary Libraries: Strong Libraries and Societies
Abstract
The libraries are one of the responsible institutions in making knowledgeable communities. The information available at large should be made available to societies along with training. The libraries which are factual, digital or virtual should think beyond their responsibility to make visionary libraries catering the information needs of communities and growth of country. To achieve these libraries of all sections should come together in planning and helping each other to bring state of art in library services and community people should actively participate in training process, applying the knowledge when needed, making awareness of information use to other community members.
