Library Visit - Young Architects from IMK Architects

 It’s always such a pleasure to have Gen Z at the library with their freshness, uniqueness and young curious minds. So, when the group of 30 young architects from IMK Architects dropped in to better understand the setting up of the Nehru Centre Library and it’s functioning, we were delighted to show them around, explain the unique architectural features of the space and also discuss the services that the library offers. They were curious to know about the reason for ‘close access’ and appreciated our idea when we explained it to them. They were also fascinated with the scientific details that go into classifying and cataloguing all library material. Our hybrid i.e. digital/analog services impressed them too.  We took them on a guided tour and showed them each and every minute detail that was part of the design.

We are happy that we could spend some time with them as they looked around at the marvellous genius of Shri I M Kadri’s creation…

Nandita Da Cunha was at the Nehru Centre Library this morning to talk about her new book 'The Five Fantastic Flights of Jeh'. It's a book about little JRD Tata and his dreams to become a pilot.

We loved having the kids and their parents to listen to the story.

We had the vibrant author duo Katie Bagli and Medha Rajadhyaksha today to talk about "Sugar, Spice and All Foods Nice", their new book of poems. With their chef caps on, they kept the mixed audience of children and adults so busy with games, painting and quizzing that time just whizzed by. The kids then queued up for the mandatory book sale and signing.

 Submerged Worlds and Other Amazing Stories of India’s Mighty Rivers – The title itself is so intriguing that one wants to know more. So, we had curious young kids listening attentively to the author Vaishali Shroff as she spoke about the rivers of India, first in the beautiful galleries of the Discovery of India Exposition and then with an informative slide show. Later, she happily autographed copies of the book and posed with the participants.
