参考范文
    Different people do not use the library in the same way. Their age, amount of education, and even their sex may affect the kind of library materials they need.
    As expected, most adults go to the kind of library for serious work, either to borrow books of academic nature(80%) ,to use research materials(61%),or to read magazines(59). Difference by sex in percentage is small except for reading novels(15% higher for women) and newspapers(12% higher for men).
    More differences in borrowing habits can be seen by the age of library users. Academic book borrowing is reported more often by those aged 25--49 than by ofther age groups while younger borrowers(age 18--24)report a higher percentage of magsazine and novel reading. In general, use of library materials experiences a certain decline among users aged 50 and older when compared with younger users.
    Education is another important factor affecting reading habits of adult readers. Those with a college education are more likely to take advantage of all types of library materials than those less well educated.
    So, public libraries should house all kinds of materials to cater for the various needs of different people.
