Libraries offer surprises, libraries connect, libraries are all-rounders and specialists, they help with writing and are an expression of a free, democratic society: Basically everyone has free access to all the information available in it.
Libraries enable diversity of opinion, democratise access to knowledge and are the cornerstones of a free, enlightened society.

By providing high-quality information, they contribute to education and research, to political participation, to coping with everyday life and to meaningful leisure activities. They enable lifelong learning and offer broad sections of the population individual access to knowledge.

The resulting challenges for the supply of information, communication technology and media give the library a key role in providing researchers, teachers and students with multimedia and connected working environments.
