What do you get from visiting the library?
Curiosity and desire for new things are inherent in people since childhood. Developing intellectually and physically, a teenager experiences the strongest information hunger. Not everyone can figure out what kind of information they need for their leisure time, what genre of literature they prefer. Sometimes, in order to figure it out, you have to superficially study several literary sources. The library provides unlimited opportunities for this. The process of searching for the right book can and should be enjoyable. Turning the pages, a person begins to comprehend what information he or she needs. They take the book they like home, where they read it in a quiet environment, then re-read the most memorable moments, re-experiencing the fate of the book’s characters.

Meanwhile, it is not fully understood what harm electromagnetic radiation from operating electrical appliances can cause to the body. It has been scientifically proven that prolonged computer time increases a child’s fatigue and has a depressing effect on the psyche. As a result, academic performance drops, the child looks pale and lethargic. Parents begin to think about why they need to go to the library when their child begins to have health problems.
