neutral  George BuLah (X): moim zdaniem - reference library to biblioteka prezencyjna, a nie - podręczna; np. w USA - prawie każda uczelnia ma taką bibliotekę (ref. lib.) ze zbiorami specjalnymi || więc obaj mówimy o bibliotece prezencyjnej na gruncie polskim :)

  -> Jaka jest więc różnica między prezencyjną a podręczną? U mnie na uczelni jest reference library, która odpowiadałaby definicji podręcznej.

Reference: reference libraries

Reference information:
reference libraries
a reference library does not lend books and other items; instead, they must be read at the library itself. Typically such libraries are used for research purposes, for example at a university; some items at reference libraries may be historical and even unique; many lending libraries contain a "reference section", which holds books, such as dictionaries, which are common reference books, and are therefore not lent out; such reference sections may be referred to as "reading rooms", which may also include newspapers and periodicals
