Do you know how libraries begin? The first libraries existed about 8 000 years ago.
The Mesopotamians were people who wrote on wet clay tablets with a wedge-shape
stick called a cuneus. Hence their writing is known as cuneiform. The tablets were baked and
the rarest of them are placed in clay envelopes, stored in palaces and temples and arranged
in subjects. Such palace collections were the first real libraries.
The libraries in early Egypt were in the temples and were under the care of priests.
The most famous library of ancient times was the library in Alexandria, established about 300
BC. It had as many as 70 000 papyrus rolls which were completely catalogued and classified
under 120 classes.
It was the Romans who first had the idea of establishing public libraries. Julius Caesar
planned a system for public libraries and after him; the public library was a Roman institution.
