Book shelves at Varanasi District Government Library biting dust

VARANASI: Call it decreasing interest in reading or negligence of the district administration towards library, the books shelves at the government district library are gathering dust and entering into oblivion.
Established in 1957 near district headquarters, the plight of the district library is that only four to five readers visit it daily. Records point out that as many as 850 people hold life-time membership of the library. These are the records of 1962.
Librarian Chandradeep Ram Chandela said that the membership is not renewed so it is difficult to identify the members who are regular. "Around 5-6 members have taken the membership this year," he said.
The number of visitors and members is low as compared to other libraries, it also failed to keep stock of good and better conditioned books in the shelves.
Chandela said that there are around 38,000 books in the library. "The books are purchased by Putakalaya Prakoshtha of the state government which sends the books in libraries. We have recently received around 150 books. We do not place a demand of books and topics of books with the state government," he added.
In the past, the library had books of wide range of subjects like history, geography, economics, literature, agriculture, theology, physics, chemistry, biology and other subjects. At present, it had a good stock of Hindu, Urdu and English literature books.
The books are not arranged according to subjects, topics and genre. The almirah and shelves do not mention about the subjects of books. Most of the books stocked in some almirahs were poorly arranged. Bindings and pages of the old books were damaged.
The librarian is not aware about the funds received by library for annual maintenance.
The librarian said that soon it would be made fully computerised. "A computer, scanner and other equipment have reached us. But we lack trained manpower to handle the work as it involved bar coding of books, library cards and other technical aspects. We are waiting if government will provide any assistance for this, till then computers are placed in office itself and not in use," Chandela said.
At present, there is one hall in which over 25 almirahs and shelves are kept along with the reading desk.
In 1994, there were proposals to extend the library with two more halls which would be connected to each other.
"The halls are half built as the funds were not proper utilised by the then incharge and at present we are using the place as store," said Chandela.

Tardy pace of library construction in Shaheed Udyan (Varanasi) irks localites


VARANASI: The slow repairing work at the only library of Varanasi Nagar Nigam (VNN) in Shaheed Udyan in Sigra going on for more than a year, is creating trouble for book lovers and hundreds of morning and evening walkers. 

"Nothing could beat the pleasure of reading newspapers and magazines after a pleasant morning and evening walk in the park. However, the library is struggling and the morning and evening walks have lost the charm," said Shishir Kumar, a regular evening walker in the park. "Half of the summer vacations have already passed and the construction work is still crawling. Children, particularly those who cannot afford to buy expensive books, are losing an opportunity to have access to free reading," said Kritika, a tutor. 

The library specially meant for children has a capacity of over 8000 books which includes Hindi and English novels, children story books, books on science fiction and nearly 30 different editions of newspapers and magazines. The library gives an opportunity for people to read books without any fee or registration charges. 

According to an employee of VNN who looks after the library, after the continuous degradation of the library for over a year, the construction work started in Spetember 2011. "The construction in the library is still going on. The three reading rooms are badly in shape crammed with damaged furniture and bundles of books, leaving no space for the readers and even book racks to be adjust," he said. In 1987, when the library was established as children's library, the number of readers used to be around 100, which often increased to 150-200 during summer vacations. Since the building started getting dilapidated, the number of readers reduced sharply. At present, the construction is going on inside the library, leaving no space for readers to sit. The library is serving the morning walkers by making newspapers available outside the library. "In spite of the lack of space for reading, the library does not issue books to be taken to home," Abhishek, a morning walker said. 

According to additional municipal comissioner Sachidanand Singh, the construction is expected to get finished by the end of June.
