It is an important part of Librarian's / Teacher's role to encourage reading and Library use positively. Unfortunately, Reading habit has lost importance as both the young and the old are glued to T.V and other.

The teachers can achieve this by

  • Telling pupils of books that might be of their interest.

  • Excusing pupils to go to the Library as the need for reference material arises.

  • Making assignments requiring the pupils to use Library resources.

  • Distributing suggested readings through mimeographed materials.
