Reading Section

The reading room is the sanctuary of the library where a reader is constantly interacting with books, the source of knowledge. God is the source of all knowledge which means the reading room is a place where a reader is constantly in touch with God. Therefore the readers are expected to keep ‘temple discipline’ inside the reading room.

All readers have a responsibility for the care of the books. The main cause of damage that a book sustains is through poor handling. A culture of good handling will ensure continued access to books and help to preserve them for future generations of users.

Reading room requirements;

• Do not mark on materials or erase existing marks.
• Do not use pen, pencil, high lighters on materials.
• Do not tear or cut documents.
• Do not make tracing or rubbings.
• All the books taken from the shelves have to be re-shelved when the reader leaves the reading room.
