Libraries are part of the society and reflect changes that take place in that society.
For example, Redwood Shores Library is a virtual library satellite for the Redwood City Public Library System. A courtesy phone is near the workstations, in case patrons need reference or other assistance from the main library staff. A locked bookcase for items reserved by patrons. A book return box is outside of the building. A small paperback collection for patrons to check out on the honor system.
