My town library is one best in the country. It is housed in a huge building in one acre of land. There is a garden in front of it and it has enough parking space for cars and cycles.
There is a reading room where we can read most
of the local and foreign newspapers and magazines. There is a reference section
with more than 80,000 volumes of books for the researchers. There is a lending
section where the members can borrow three books per week. I find English,
Sinhala books on various subjects. I have a section where there are
dictionaries books of knowledge and encyclopedia. In the children's section
very colourful books for the kids. They have story telling session at week-ends.
At week-ends they show documentary films in the audio visual room.
Now we also have as many as 20 computers and
inter-net facilities so that the members can browse whatever they are
interested in. Our town library stands smart as a store house of knowledge. 😍
