My School Library essay is beneficial to students of classes 7, 8, 9, and 10.

We come into the world as infants. At that stage, we know very little about the world. Kids are all curious and want to know more about things happening around them. Kids love stories of adventures, challenging voyages, mysteries, horror stories, fiction, and fairy tales. They love to explore.

I was introduced to the beautiful world of books by my parents. Every night, my mother or my father read me stories from a storybook before I went to bed. Books were my first friends. When nobody was around me, I spent my time reading them when I had nothing to do. Books opened magical doors that led me to magical places.

When I started primary school, I was awestruck when we had our first library class. I couldn’t believe that so many books were kept in one room and were available for us to borrow and read. Every week I used to borrow two books- one fiction and another reference book. After finishing them, I restlessly waited for our next library class.
I loved the dignity of the place. To be able to read anything in such a quiet, calm, and peaceful environment was like a taste of heaven.

Miss Librarian was a kind lady. She gave us recommendations on books that we would love to read. I loved the Geronimo Stilton series. The Library also had a section dedicated to biographies of notable persons. I loved to learn about the life of Mahatma Gandhi.

My school library helped me foster my love for books. Science books also interested me. I came to know about the solar system, the galaxies, stars, and planets. I also loved reading about dinosaurs and monkey-men and the process of evolution. Enid Blyton’s stories were my favorite.

When I was promoted to Class Five, we got a new librarian. I developed my interest in poetry and classic novels. Ruskin Bond and Keki.N Daruwalla were my favorite Indian authors. I loved Robert Frost and his poem Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening. Throughout my school life, the Library has been my favorite room. In free periods, lunch breaks, and after-school, I visited the Library and read my books in a calm and peaceful environment. My school library is like a temple-a holy place from where anything can be known, and anything can be learned.

Students cannot possibly buy and have all the books they need. The Library solves this problem. It has all kinds of books- of all genres and themes. It also has various reference books that help me understand my academics better. The hushed environment stimulates higher levels of concentration. To become a better person and change the world, the library serves as the best training ground and starting point.
