Tambaram public library in urgent need of upgrade

Tambaram Government public library which was established in 1957, is in a bad condition without the basic facilities. The library is totally dilapidated and the building is in poor condition, as it had not been renovated or painted for more than 10 years. Moreover, the library is hidden by roadside shops, due to which many people do not even know a library is functioning there. The books are also not being updated frequently. 

“The library is one of the oldest in the locality, which has helped many people to reach great heights in their lives.” said Subramani (55) the resident of Tambaram.

When asked, Tambaram Municipal Commissioner, Krishna Moorthy said, “We will visit the library soon and take all the necessary steps to improve the library and keep the books updated,” he said.
