The use and appropriation of public libraries in Singapore for lifelong learning.

Abstract

Learning is an activity that all living organisms has continually been engaged in. The end product of learning and the use of the knowledge gained from learning has been a competitive advantage, that can be used by both countries and people for tremendous wealth generation. Lifelong learning is the process of a lifetime of gaining of knowledge, skills and/or abilities. As the learning process is subtle and intangible, the way to enable and encourage lifelong learning would be in its facilitation and provision of lifelong learning.
