![Philosophy of Service
Resource sharing challenges me daily to share our
collection freely, to find correct and current
information, and to provide resources in the
quickest way possible.
I salute Ranganathan for his Five Laws of Library
Science:
Books are for use.
Every reader his [or her] book.
Every book its reader.
Save the time of the User.
The library is a growing organism.
May I continue to grow with the library… jb](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/presentation-090717163402-phpapp01/85/Capstone_Presentation-11-320.jpg)
