In a statement general secretary of the state unit, Arjun Singh Pathania said that there are a lot of public libraries run by government but they have many limitations with regard to infrastructure, printed information resources, storage and space. Books in these libraries are very limited and its membership require guarantee of gazzeted officer.
He said libraries in district headquarters providing online reference materials, famous journals and newspapers. It should have good number of books, audio-visual materials and Photostat facilities at nominal price. The library should have easy process of membership without the guarantee of any gazzeted officer of state. It should have neat and clean reading rooms and discussion halls with 24-hour student entry.
