In order to have sufficient information about the importance of libraries, the researchers have distributed a questionnaire among (50) library users. In fact, the results were exciting, astonishing, and promising; almost all of the sample members encouraged people to use libraries and make them their ultimate option and priority. Recommendations, discussion, and explanations will be highlighted in detail in this paper.
