The library as we know it today is called a "lending library." The library "lends" you a book to read and you return when your loan time is up. Libraries offer a great variety of books and you do not have to purchase them. Some of the books are fun, some are educational, some are instructional, and some are books of facts. Libraries keep old copies of newspapers for researching events.
The library is a great source of a variety of books without having to pay large sums of money. If you are interested in a book, a good practice is to go to the library, check out the book, and read it. If you find you would like to keep the book, you can then go to a bookstore and buy it. Not many people can afford to maintain a large library for their personal use.
With the development, ease of use, and convenience of the Internet, many people have abandoned the use of the library. The library is a magical place of discovery.
