There are different categories of libraries across the world, like 1) School Libraries – for School Children/ teachers of that particular School, 2) College Libraries --  for College Student/ teachers/ faculty of that particular College, 3) University libraries  -- for  Student/ teachers/ faculty/ Scholars of that particular University, 4) Research Libraries  --- for  Student/ teachers/ faculty/ Scholars of that particular institutes.

These libraries can be accessed by those students / teachers / faculty/ scholars --- till the date they are enrolled. Once student period ends they are unable to access. All these libraries are having unique characteristics i.e. user centric approach.
