it's own.<br>
<br>
Let's take the local city library here, which has several sections at<br>
different locations.<br>
There is the main location, a children- and computer library as a<br>
thematic "branch" and several localized branches in some suburbs and<br>
villages around.<br>
<br>
You get one common user account for all of them and you can return media<br>
on any location and order any media to the location you want to get it<br>
(if you pre-order it).<br>
You can open an account on any location and so on.<br>
<br>
Therefore I would consider each "section" as it's own library, even if<br>
they share the user account system and their catalogue.<br>
<br>
Of course it is slightly different than the university library, which<br>
has only one section (here in Paderborn) but allows to get media from a<br>
whole network of university libraries around (if you pay some extra fee<br>
and wait for the book to arrive and so on), but for a map users point of<br>
view I don't think it's worth adding another tag for this.<br>
<br>
Nevertheless for thematic sections it may be useful to name/mark/tag<br>
them as such, to tell people this is a general library, that one a<br>
topical library for medical sciences and so on.<br>
<br>
