A LOOK IN ON ERNAKULAM PUBLIC LIBRARY

     On NOVEMBER 15,2018 we have paid a visit to Ernakulam Public Library as a part of our academic curriculum. We have reached the library by 10 am accompanied with our seniors and one of our teachers Asha D varghese.
 
       
     Ernakulam Public Library is one of the oldest public library in Kerala. It is situated in the heart of the Ernakulam city, established in 1870. The library serves as the most important information store and cultural center of Ernakulam and has a collection of several media on various subjects. One of the most important feature of this public library is that it is the first public library in Kerala to implement RFID system.


     The welcoming staffs in the library has guided us through the various sections and introduced its functions and the collections of the library. The collection includes around 150000 books in English, Malayalam, Hindi, Tamil, Sanskrit, Konkani and French languages. About 20 Foreign publications, Journals and other Periodicals.
