MODULE 1
Introduction to the Library
A library is filled with books and materials on almost every subject you can imagine.  Without a system of organization, one would have to look through piles of books to locate information on a given topic.  No one would be able to easily locate books.  In order to more easily locate materials in a library, a method of arranging books in the library was created.  Although libraries may differ in appearance and content, most libraries use similar arrangements for the books and materials.
