On Libraries Summary in Nepali | By Oliver Sacks | Class 12 Compulsory English | NEB

The essay "On Libraries" by Oliver Sacks reflects on the author's lifelong love for libraries and the profound impact they had on his intellectual development. Sacks, a renowned neurologist and author, shares his personal experiences with various libraries and highlights the transformative role they played in shaping his interests, education, and sense of community. The essay spans Sacks' childhood library, local public library, university libraries in Oxford, and libraries in New York City. He emphasizes the freedom, joy, and serendipity of exploring shelves filled with books and the unique atmosphere of libraries.
Sacks recounts his early fascination with the diverse collection of books in his family's oak-paneled library, where he discovered a wide range of literary treasures. His love for reading and learning led him to explore libraries beyond his home, such as the Willesden Public Library, which became his true education ground. Throughout his life, Sacks found solace and inspiration in various libraries, including those at St. Paul’s School, the Science Museum, Oxford, and the Queen’s College.
The essay also touches on the changing dynamics of libraries in the 1990s, with the increasing reliance on digital technology. Sacks observes a shift in student behavior as they began accessing information through computers rather than exploring physical bookshelves. This transition led to the disposal of books in some libraries, a development that deeply saddened Sacks, who felt it was a loss of centuries of knowledge.
