In today’s competitive world, a general lack of values like respect for the elders, pride for one’s own culture, self-confidence to face setbacks in life, a sense of cooperation among peer groups and a spirit of dedicated service are getting eroded slowly from our children.

The children of today are the citizens of tomorrow. Swami Vivekananda dreamt of a new India – strong, confident and benevolent. Keeping in view the burning need of teaching values to the children during their childhood itself, the Children’s Library provides latest cultural and value educational facilities to complement the purely academic nature of education available in the schools.

Mother is the first teacher of her child. To enrich this phenomena, the parents are encouraged to spend their time with their children in book-reading, games as well as various activities of the Children Library.

The salient features of the ‘Children’s Library’ are as follows:

1) Value educational audio and video CDs as well as computer facility.
