A National Library is a library established by the government as a country’s pre-eminent repository of information. Unlike public libraries, these rarely allows citizens to borrow books. Often they include numerous rare, valuable, or significant works. A National Library is that Library which has the duty of collecting and preserving the Literature of the nation within and outside the country.
