This is a quote from Victor Hugo's poem, "A Qui La Faute?" from 1872. It means that by collecting books and by collecting knowledge (in a library), people are making an investment that future generations will continue to learn and grow intellectually.

The symbolism is that we are all "in the dark" in our own time, but that by recording and storing our knowledge in the safety of a library, future generations will be able to see the light and learn from our mistakes and our experience.
