Community Library
The Anantmool demonstration center houses a library that fosters a gender-inclusive environment. Its main focus is to promote enlightenment through books and important library practices that help build a strong and self-sustainable community. We strive to create a safe space for everyone to engage in a journey with books and reading, aiming to foster a strong reading culture among the members. In addition, we organize activities such as art and crafts sessions to encourage creativity and imagination among children.
