Unable to enter Photos on my iMac

When wishing to view my photographs in Photos I get a sign in the middle of the screen stating ' closing library '. This is most frustrating as it has been like this for a couple of days. I am able to view a limited number of my photographs in iPhotos but this app only holds half the number held on Photos. How do I open Photos?

iMac 21.5", macOS 10.13

Sometimes it helps to force-quit Photos and then to restart it. But make a copy of your Photos Library as a backup, before you try force quitting Photos. ( -menu > Force Quit, then click Force Quit Photos).
