Darjeeling Women Develop a Library from Empty Car Garage

Here is real inspirational story about a Darjeeling Women Srijana who build the library from her collection as well as donations from friends and well-wishers. She started the library which she calls ‘The Book Thief'
After selling her car she decided to set up the library from empty car garage. It is informal and devoid of any support from the government or other organisation. Children of all ages come to the library. She say how the library is also helping bring about a change in the attitude of the children. Library keeps her motivated and she wants to continue doing the work for the betterment of the society. Using old refrigerator for shelving books (An innovative book shelf). The youngest member at the library was a three-year-old.


The detailed story was published in The Better India dated : January 16, 2019
