Apart from the direct approach in giving information to specific inquiries, the reference collection is, also, a precious source of various information for all users, and one of the essential ways of providing references and specialized information. Therefore, a lot of effort and attention were put into the arrangement/creation of this reference collection that it might become a precious well of available information in such a clear, perceptible and representative way, with assured open and easy approach to it.
