Reference books are literature used as fastest and easiest way for exploring useful information, meanings of the words or instructions for further data searching for homework, reports and so on. They contain words sorted alphabetically which explain or represent meaning, ie. they indicate or denote something.

Reference literature are special collections in almost every library and they imply:

• in the narrow sense:
  dictionaries
  lexicons
  encyclopedias
  orthographies,
• in a broader sense:
  atlases
  grammar
  various manuals

Reference books are not for borrowing and users can use them in our library.
