10. Conclusion
The mission of libraries, together with their objectives, is based on culture, education and the enhancement of the level of knowledge and science of society through
fulfilling the informational needs of their users. Included in this, is also the consideration of the 5
th
principle of Ranganathan library science (the library is a living dynamic
organism), where growth of the complex, readers and library staff are introduced as
effective factors in their growth and clearly refers to the importance of providing the
necessary library conditions and facilities to offer services to all users. Libraries are
regarded as the most exclusive scientific and cultural centers throughout the world and
should offer services to everyone. The minority group of the blind and visually impaired
are regarded as potential and actual users of libraries, especially public ones. Evaluating their physical conditions and understanding their problems with regard to their perception of space, can play a significant role in designing an appropriate and effective
space to offer quality services to the blind, increase number of library users, improve
their accessibility to references and strengthen their self-confidence. Undoubtedly, cooperation between librarians and architects in designing an efficient, appropriate, comfortable and safe space for the blind play an undeniably important role in realizing this
mission and achieving these objectives, in accordance with library science standards,
regulations and architectural design.
