Access to knowledge
Freedom, prosperity, development of society, as well as certain citizens, are among fundamental human values. All this is reached only by a possibility for widely informed citizens to carry out the democratic rights and to play an active role in society. Fruitful participation of citizens and development of democracy depend on receiving satisfactory education, and also on free and unlimited access to knowledge, ideas, culture and information.

The materials meeting requirements of all age groups have to be stored in funds. Library stocks and services have to include all types of appropriate means of information, modern technologies, and also traditional materials. Quality providing and the accounting of local requirements and conditions has paramount value.

Financing, legislation and networks
The public library usually provides the services free of charge. The public library submits to local and national authorities. Its activity is defined by the special legislation and is financed by national and local authorities. Activity of public library is an important component of any long-term strategy in the field of culture, providing information, distribution of literacy and education.
To provide interstate library coordination and cooperation, it is necessary to provide creation of a national network of libraries and rendering support in the legislation and strategic plans to it on the basis of the coordinated norms of rendering of services.
The network of public libraries has to be created taking into account national, regional, research and special libraries, and also libraries at schools, colleges and universities.

It is necessary to formulate the accurate policy defining tasks, priorities and services taking into account local public requirements. It is necessary to provide the effective organization of work of public library and to support her at the professional level.
