Heritage Public Library Careers in Richmond, VA

Heritage Public Library is a regional library, serving citizens of both Charles City and New Kent Counties, Virginia. We adhere to Dr. S. R. Ranganathan's Five Laws of Library Science. The Five Laws of Library Science are some of the most influential concepts in the field of library science. Since they were published in 1931, these five laws “have remained a centerpiece of professional values...”.* In fact, these basic theories of Library Science continue to directly affect the development of this discipline and the service of all libraries. These laws are: 1.Books are for use. 2.Every reader his [or her] book. 3.Every book its reader. 4.Save the time of the reader. 5.The library is a growing organism. We also subscribe to the American Library Association's Code of Ethics and Bill of Rights. *Rubin, Richard E. Foundations of Library and Information Science. 2nd ed.
