: Sample Answer

The central city library in my locality is my favourite library. This is a library which is run and funded by the Government and local officials and is a renowned library in our city. This is more than 100 years old and has a very rich collection of books, journals, reference books, novels and other reading materials. This library has recently introduced some digital formation and gives the facility to read books in electronic devices. Almost 200 people go to this library every day and it offers a really quiet and calm environment for reading

This library offers many benefits and the most important thing is about a library is that it comprises books that are the main sources of knowledge. This library has more than 20,000 books and people can easily find a book that might interest them or the books they were looking for. Students come here to take reference for their study materials and to take notes, the literacy lovers come to read novels and stories by world renowned writers, the regular members can take books to their home and thus can read in their free time. Time spent in a library is a wise investment and I feel that the contribution of this library towards making a literate and conscious generation is unmatched

I often go to the library to read books that are in my “must read” list. Besides, this is a good place to take notes and to read and I often go there for my study purpose. As I am a subscribed member of this library, I can take books to my house and I usually return those books in every 4-5 days to take a new one

There are lots of famous libraries in my country and in the world that I heard about and yet this is the very library that helped me grow my interest on extra-curricular reading habit. I have read books from this library that have greatly helped me and because of that, I like this library more than any other library in the world. Furthermore, the environment of reading, the staff, the arrangement of books, the rich collection and my easy access to this library make it my most favourite library
