In the
region parched for the basic education to dream about library and that too
mobile library at their door step is maybe asking for too much.
But the fact remains the rural library with reference section and mobile
section is a reality in the regions of singhbhum , Palamau and garwah in
S.bihar. small rooms equipped with simple books on agricultural techniques
, basic health practices, development infomration are made available in
select villages. This is aimed to expose with more information and to
update and enhance their knowledge. Further for those who are interested
books are lent to their homes. Facilitators in the village are trained to
inculcate and develop reading habit among the community members.
In addition to the mobile libraries an central library is being
established in each district to facilate the rural population in the
region to utilise the library for reference work.
(This services increased the rural people's access to information. Since
these information are related to their life and their reality, many of
them have gained from this by way of knowing the government services )
