Bloomsday Ireland Consulate

 The Nehru Centre Library was honoured to host the Bloomsday and Beyond 2026 celebrations in collaboration with the Consulate General of Ireland, Mumbai (@irelandinindia).

The event paid tribute to the enduring literary legacy of James Joyce and his masterpiece Ulysses, bringing together literature enthusiasts, scholars, and members of the community to celebrate the timeless power of storytelling.

A special highlight of the occasion was the ceremonial gifting of books by the Consulate General of Ireland to the Nehru Centre Library, symbolising the shared commitment of India and Ireland to promoting literature, learning, and cultural exchange.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Consulate General of Ireland, Mumbai, and @irelandinindia for partnering with us in making this celebration memorable and for the thoughtful gifting of books to our library.

From Library Research to Academic Excellence

We are proud to celebrate the remarkable achievement of Vaishnavi Shivanagi, whose thesis on the Koli Community received outstanding academic recognition and topped the class.

Her research journey reflects dedication, meaningful scholarship, and the value of libraries in supporting academic excellence. We are especially honoured that Nehru Centre Library and our Head Librarian were acknowledged in the thesis for their guidance and support throughout the research process.

Moments like these inspire us to continue empowering readers, researchers, and future scholars.

Congratulations, Vaishnavi, and best wishes for many more achievements ahead!
