librariesDefinition from Wiktionary, the free dictionary Jump to: navigation, searchNounlibraries
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A library is a collection of sources, resources, and services, and the structure in which it is housed; it is organized for use and maintained by a public body, an institution, or a private individual. In the more traditional sense, a library is a collection of books. It can mean the collection, the building or room that houses such a collection, or both. The term "library" has itself acquired a secondary meaning: "a collection of useful material for common use." This sense is used in fields such as computer science, mathematics, statistics, electronics and biology. It can also be used by publishers in naming series of related books, e.g. The Library of Anglo-Catholic Theology. Libraries often provide a place of silence for studying. Public and institutional collections and services may be intended for use by people who choose not to — or cannot afford to — purchase an extensive collection themselves, who need material no individual can reasonably be expected to have, or who require professional assistance with their research. In addition to providing materials, libraries also provide the services of librarians who are experts at finding and organizing information and at interpreting information needs. However, with the sets and collection of media and of media other than books for storing information, many libraries are now also repositories and access points for maps, prints, or other documents and various storage media such as microform (microfilm/microfiche), audio tapes, CDs, cassettes, videotapes, DVDs, and video games. Libraries may also provide public facilities to access subscription databases and the Internet. Thus, modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many sources. They are understood as extending beyond the physical walls of a building, by including material accessible by electronic means, and by providing the assistance of librarians in navigating and analyzing tremendous amounts of information with a variety of digital tools.

When do you think most libraries would get this in? I know it depends from place to place, but in general.. Asked by soulfacemusic - Tue Oct 7 16:47:42 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. I'd say given the time and the book that your library has it already but it might have a hold list a mile long. My library system goes like this: most books they get in on the day they are released but they are not ready for checkout yet. Most of the time it takes 2-4 weeks for them to process all of them and get them to all of the branches. If the book is highly anticipated like the most recent Eragon book they get them processed and out to the branches the day of release. Good luck.

Well, there are actually a few questions you're asking...and a few different answers. When you say it's another library in the same system, do you mean something like a different branch of the same city or county library? "Systems" can mean different things to different groups of libraries. In some cases, "systems" can be very loosely-organized groups or very centralized organizations throughout a region. The more closely organized a system is (like a city or county system), the more likely they're going to have a delivery system that can get items returned between branches/libraries. Still, most libraries have some way to make sure that books delivered to the wrong location get sent back to the right place, so having them be… [cont.] Answered by Bill Pardue--Librarian - Sun Feb 21 15:52:31 2010 From Yahoo Answer Search: "libraries" LibrariesFrom Wikiquote Jump to: navigation, searchA library is a collection of information resources and services, organized for use, and maintained by a public body, institution, or private individual.
