Taiwan's Library Law was passed in 2001 and revised in 2015. The development of Taiwan's library legal system can be traced back to the early years of the Republic of China, and the Library Law has long been the management law of national libraries. As the Printing Act was abolished along with Taiwan's democratization, the compulsory policy of delivering publications to the National Library must resort to another legal source. It gave birth to the Library Law, which stipulated new social service functions of libraries and expanded the service of public libraries to special readers with physical and mental disabilities. However, its shortcomings are the lack of explicitly legal stipulation to protect the library users' rights of equal and fair use and their right to read.
