CHANGING STEREOTYPES ABOUT THE LIBRARY
From century to century, the activity of libraries is aimed at organizing library and information services for all categories of users, ensuring their free and secure access to information, knowledge, and cultural values. For many centuries, the library has been performing educational, cultural, and leisure functions in library and information activities. Despite the standard activities of libraries, new forms of work are rapidly entering the library service for readers, making libraries more attractive to the “digital” generation of users, and bringing library and information activities to a completely different, more productive level.
