Progress gives people virtually unlimited access to the most various information. This significantly influenced the popularity of libraries. If earlier they were filled with students and just reading people, now for the most part they look into it just for the sake of curiosity. Such an attitude big mistake. Seeing a library as solely a repository of books is like judging a book by its cover alone.

Her value

“Libraries are the treasuries of all the riches of the human spirit,” it is difficult to dispute such a statement by G. Leibniz. It contains both direct and figurative meaning. At a time when books were not yet printed in large quantities, they could be purchased for a lot of money. To have a library of impressive size at home meant the presence of the fortune and status of its owner. That is why books then really had the status of a treasure.

IN figuratively a library is equivalent to a treasure, because it can contain stories from all over the world, about people whose fates are shared by entire epochs.

How many days of work, how many nights without sleep, how many efforts of the mind, how many hopes and fears, how many long lives of diligent study are poured out here in small typographic fonts and squeezed into the cramped space of the shelves surrounding us! (Adam Smith)

She can be both a teacher, revealing knowledge about the world, and an assistant, because from her you can learn a lot of advice that will help you difficult situation. The book often becomes a severe critic, denouncing the most unsightly vices of mankind, in the hope that this will make people change their minds and not make such mistakes again.

That is why before today Many quotes about libraries came through.

A kind of art

Some quotes about the library prove that the ability to pick up the right books, keep them in order, is a kind of art. And not everyone can master it. Limitation of the mind, lack of taste can manifest itself here as never before. A smart, well-read person who is well versed in literature will be able to assess the intellectual potential of the library owner at first glance.

A library entrusted to an ignoramus is like a harem run by a eunuch. (Voltaire)

How many such gentlemen, on whose libraries one could stick, as on pharmacy bottles, the inscription: "For external use." (Alphonse Daudet)

Tell me what you read and I'll tell you who you are. One can get a true idea of ​​the mind and character of a person by examining his library. (Louis Jean Joseph Blanc)

Quality, not quantity

The first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word “library” is a huge number of tall shelves with hundreds of books on them. Their contemplation sometimes awakens a feeling of reverent awe. When the librarian goes into its bowels in search of the right book, it seems that without a map he will never come back.

However, a huge number of volumes is not always a sign of a good library. The presence in it of unique books, works the best authors- that's what makes it worthy of attention. There may be few of them, but after getting acquainted with the work of each, an indelible impression remains. The quotes of the greats about the library, where its quality is more valuable than its size, serve as confirmation of this.

A large library dispels rather than instructs the reader. It is much better to confine oneself to a few authors than to rashly read many. (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Jr.)

The multitude of books in a library is often a crowd of witnesses to the ignorance of its owner. (Axel Oxenstierna)

Modern man is in front of the Himalayas of libraries in the position of a gold digger who needs to find grains of gold in a mass of sand. (S. I. Vavilov)

Compass, photo album and time machine

A very unusual characteristic of the library, but if you make some clarifications, then it becomes quite reasonable. It contains many books, where the reader opens up a variety of routes. These are amazing expeditions to uncharted corners of the earth and the search for lost treasures, the path to which can be read from the map. Thus, the book serves as a kind of compass. Together with him, you can explore the world without leaving the walls of the library.

The plots that are revealed to us are filled with amazing pictures. Descriptions of the world of animals, mythical monsters make the imagination imagine the most unimaginable. A whole world is hidden inside the book, and the author describes its landscapes, panoramas of the city. So, in our imagination, pictures appear every now and then, as if we are leafing through a photo album.

How to imagine yourself as a resident of a medieval village, a participant in a legendary historical battle, or to be on board a spaceship created in the future? Just pick up a book. Thus, the library may well be considered a time machine. It will take you to any era. Here are some more quotes about the library on this topic.

Lovely teacher

One of the main vocations of the library is to help a person get to know this world, improve his intellect, and expand the horizons of his worldview. For many centuries, within its walls, people took the path greatest discoveries. The ability to find the right book, study it, selecting what is important for oneself - all this develops in the best possible way in the library.

In the age of the Internet, it is increasingly difficult for books to remain as popular as they are. However, any researcher who wants his work to claim authority goes to the library.

Any learning process will only be complete when a person has good knowledge not only about modern achievements, but also about discoveries made centuries ago. The following citations about the library will help to verify this.

What a pleasure it is to be in a good library. Looking at books is already happiness. Before you is a feast worthy of the gods; you realize that you can take part in it and fill your cup to the brim. (William Makepeace Thackeray)

Therefore, cities, and especially large cities that have sufficient funds, should not spare money on acquiring good books and bookstores. (Luther)

friend and psychologist

Not every person can freely find mutual language with other people. He is alien to the vanity and commercialism of those who see in each new day only a chance to survive, to get something, leaving others behind. It is difficult for such a person to fit into the rhythm of life familiar to others, and he is desperately looking for his niche, a secluded corner where no one will consider him strange or eccentric. Here his thoughts will stop chaotically rushing about, his mind will clear up, all problems will remain outside and there will be time for himself.

Someone simply does not have a friend or relative nearby who would like to open his soul, tell about his experiences. Books, their heroes, whose fates are sometimes very similar to ours, help to understand how to live on, which path to choose, how to overcome difficulties. Therefore, if you need advice, then you can find it not only in the psychologist's office, but also in the library.

Each of us can find in the library peace of mind, comfort in sorrow, moral renewal and happiness, if only he knows how to "possess that precious key that unlocks the mysterious door of this treasury" (Matthews). (Lubbock)

I love libraries, I like to stay in them, and I know how to leave on time. I have been reproached for this more than once, but I am only proud of it. You have to be a library reader, but not a library rat. (France)

Her keeper

Librarian - guide to wonderful world, a wise adviser and keeper of countless knowledge. The ruler of the state is proud of each new occupied territory, the librarian - a rack with books. It's great when he loves his job, instantly understands what the visitor is asking for, skillfully selects a list of necessary works. Just as the seller assesses the tastes and preferences of the client, exchanging just a couple of phrases with him, the librarian knows what to draw the visitor's attention to. This shows his skill. This is confirmed by the following quotes about the library and librarians.

The librarian who does not like to read is no good, who, reading an interesting book, does not forget everything in the world. (N.K. Krupskaya)

Why, out of hundreds of professions, did I choose Love for books, for reading? No, not only that.

("Librarian")

Being a librarian is like riding a bicycle: if you stop pedaling and moving forward, you fall. (D. Schumacher)

Pledge of popularity

The age of technology, the creation of various gadgets, the Internet - all this has reduced the number of people visiting the library. The availability of information is captivating, because it is so tempting to just type the right question in the search box or download the electronic version of the book.

Another impediment to the library's return to popularity was the decline in interest in reading. A huge number of cartoons, videos on YouTube channels, millions of applications that children get acquainted with before they have learned how to speak properly - all this has discouraged the younger generation from reading. Why strain your imagination by imagining a character in your head when you can watch it online.

The one who does not read anything has no advantage over the one who cannot read. (M. Twain)

Readers and book connoisseurs often refer to books as "their friends", considering this comparison to be the highest praise. (D. Lubbock)

The book is the answer to many questions, it contains stories about the prosperity and fall of empires, about love and betrayal, about the past and the future. She certainly deserves respect. Therefore, it is worth remembering quotes about the library and the book.

Your holiday

The library means so much in a person's life that it could not help but get its own holiday. World Library Day is celebrated on the last Monday in October. It was first held in 1999. It was initiated by UNESCO.
