Description

Do you remember the joy of visiting the library? Brian Baird introduces a report on the Library service. Dr Whiteman discusses the new School of Library Studies at Queen’s University. Its aim is to create new librarians. Where are the vanishing readers? What role will the computer play? This film includes lovely shots of all kinds of libraries including Belfast Central Library where a Telex machine is making life easier for the librarians. And on the streets of Belfast, the mobile library is doing its rounds.

An Ulster Television Production.
