teachers and should be strategically placed in a quiet area free from
excessive noise with good ventilation and ample daylight in the library room.
2. There could be space maintained for computer workstations, displays
(shelves/ tables/ stands) and a library circulation counter. The library
could be appropriately designed to meet the special needs of
differently-abled library users. 3. The library could be made inviting and
pleasing with comfortable furniture like chairs, reading tables, bookshelves,
display rack etc. The wall and furniture could also be painted with
attractive, non-reflective and eye/reading-friendly shades. 4. Library may
have at least five books (other than textbooks) per student to maintain the
appropriate ratio of total enrolled students in school to total number of
library books in school. 5. Library resources could include books, fiction,
non-fiction, reference books, encyclopaedia, periodicals, magazines, journals
and newspapers in as many languages as possible. Books to help attain
foundational literacy and numeracy could also be made available for primary

Multimedia Selection Sub-Committee may be formed by including the subject
teachers as well as student representatives to get the books and other
reading materials personally examined before their purchase. 7. Dedicated
periods could be allotted for the library, especially in grades so that
students can improve their oral reading fluency under the supervision of the
teacher. 8. School libraries could be set up- particularly in convergence
with other ministries/departments- to serve the community during non-school
hours and book clubs may meet in public/school libraries to further
facilitate and promote widespread reading. The above-mentioned activities are
only suggestive in nature, schools can design/ plan activities based on
