Why Library ?

Libraries are the primary source of knowledge and help develop one of the most important habits in children and youth - the habit of reading. The importance of libraries, especially in schools, cannot be stressed enough. There is roughly one rural library in the country for 11500 people and one urban library for 80000 people. Most of these libraries too have not been upgraded. According to the 2011 census, the per capita expenditure on the development of public libraries translates to 7 paise.

With more and more public libraries closing down and books becoming more expensive and inaccessible, children from unprivileged and marginalised communities find it harder to read. In such a scenario, community libraries have growing relevance. Community libraries, upgraded to include all recent advancements in the field of education, can act as a catalyst in empowerment of people from underprivileged communities.

Documenting Library Narratives

Haadibadi Community Library is looking forward to documenting your experience of having access - or the lack of it - to libraries. Please take these few minutes in helping us understand, document and collect the details of library in our lives. We will be using your responses to create a map of library experiences and sharing it as an open resource in different forms.
