The most important thing about a library is that it is a collection. What
exactly is done with the collection varies.
It is nice if people who take things from the library try to find things to
donate, but it's not required.
library
n 1: a room where books are kept; "they had brandy in the
library"
2: a collection of literary documents or records kept for
reference or borrowing
3: a depository built to contain books and other materials for
reading and study [syn: {library}, {depository library}]
4: (computing) a collection of standard programs and subroutines
that are stored and available for immediate use [syn:
{library}, {program library}, {subroutine library}]
5: a building that houses a collection of books and other
materials
