 Reflective Journal – Library Visit

Date: 16/05/2025

Location: Library of Samtse College of Education 

Today’s library visit was insightful and engaging. I was impressed by the unique snake like book arrangement and the clear 900 classification system in the History section, which helped me easily find relevant materials.

I explored Vanished Civilization and 100 Years of World War 1, both rich in historical insights. The History and Civic Corner stood out with its rare and valuable books, while the Commerce Corner made textbooks for grades 7–10 easily accessible.

I also noticed the thoughtful placement of new arrivals, popular books, and magazines, along with the Book Drive Corner that promotes student favourites. The English Tibetan dictionary was a valuable discovery for bilingual learners.

Reflection:

This visit reminded me that history is more than facts; it’s about understanding cultures and change. I feel motivated to use the library more often for deeper learning.
