Limited edition, literally

Membership

We keep membership to 150 readers — enough to know everyone by name, few enough that the book you want is usually on the shelf.

₹350

for six months — the better deal

The terms, plainly

  • ₹10–20 per book borrowed, paid when you borrow.
  • Bring books back on time and in the state you took them.
  • Lost or damaged books are paid for — that's how a small shelf survives.
  • Good borrowers get first say on new arrivals and reservations.

How to join

Come to the library — No.13/15, Arangannal Street, Near Panchamukha Hanuman Temple, Tharamani — with any photo ID to show us. We'll take your name, a phone number, and your first borrowing. That's the whole process; there is no form on the internet.
