My school library is a treasure trove of knowledge and my favourite place to spend free time. It is a large, quiet hall filled with tall bookshelves arranged in neat rows. Thousands of books on various subjects are available, from fascinating storybooks and adventurous novels to informative encyclopedias and important reference books. The librarian, Mrs. Das, is very helpful and always guides us to find the books we need. We are required to maintain complete silence, which helps everyone to concentrate on their reading. I often borrow storybooks to read at home. We have a library card to issue and return books within a specific period. Sometimes, I just sit at one of the large wooden tables and browse through magazines and newspapers to increase my general knowledge. The calm and disciplined atmosphere of the library allows me to explore new worlds and discover amazing facts. It's a peaceful sanctuary that encourages the wonderful habit of reading.

Sneha
Hi Ajay! I'm trying to locate a book on Indian history, but I can't find it.
Ajay
Hi Sneha. The history books are arranged in the third row on the left. Did you check there?
Sneha
Oh, I was searching in the wrong place! Thanks. This library is so big, it's easy to get lost.
Ajay
I know! But it's great for concentration. The complete silence really helps me to study. What are you planning to do now?
Sneha
I'll borrow this book and then maybe browse some magazines. It's a very helpful way to increase my general knowledge.
Ajay
True. The librarian encourages us to read different things. Well, happy reading!
