+## Usage
+
+The procfs library is organized by packages based on whether the gathered data is coming from
+/proc, /sys, or both. Each package contains an `FS` type which represents the path to either /proc, /sys, or both. For example, current cpu statistics are gathered from
+`/proc/stat` and are available via the root procfs package. First, the proc filesystem mount
+point is initialized, and then the stat information is read.
+
+```go
+fs, err := procfs.NewFS("/proc")
+stats, err := fs.Stat()
+```
+
+Some sub-packages such as `blockdevice`, require access to both the proc and sys filesystems.
+
+```go
+ fs, err := blockdevice.NewFS("/proc", "/sys")
+ stats, err := fs.ProcDiskstats()
+```
+
+## Building and Testing
+
+The procfs library is normally built as part of another application. However, when making
+changes to the library, the `make test` command can be used to run the API test suite.
+
+### Updating Test Fixtures
+
+The procfs library includes a set of test fixtures which include many example files from
+the `/proc` and `/sys` filesystems. These fixtures are included as a [ttar](https://github.com/ideaship/ttar) file
+which is extracted automatically during testing. To add/update the test fixtures, first
+ensure the `fixtures` directory is up to date by removing the existing directory and then
+extracting the ttar file using `make fixtures/.unpacked` or just `make test`.
+
+```bash
+rm -rf fixtures
+make test
+```
+
+Next, make the required changes to the extracted files in the `fixtures` directory. When
+the changes are complete, run `make update_fixtures` to create a new `fixtures.ttar` file
+based on the updated `fixtures` directory. And finally, verify the changes using
+`git diff fixtures.ttar`.
