The main objective of the library is not just limited to let people have access to the literary world of books alone, but in a broader aspect, elevate above fiction and fantasy reading, though novels are certainly a stepping stone towards getting attracted towards book world. Thus, keeping this in view the inclination of the library is more as a resource combined with pleasure reading.

The aim to focus nature and environment is primarily to let people understand the importance of our natural surroundings for our well being, as the price we are paying due to our negligence and ignorance of it, is leading us at such a stage where our survival is at stake.

To supplement this, screening of documentaries & films generally on nature and environment is done for members as well as non members. Our effort in future will combine various activities related to reading and ecology.
