Library service is one noble task for empowerment of the society. Reading of books brings recreation and pleasure to the reader and enhances the knowledge level. Library helps maintain discipline in the society. But due to the modern entertainment medias, like films, TVs, V.C.P., V.C.R., L.C.D., etc, the reading habit of the people is, day by day, declining. During the year-2005-2006, the NGO has established one public library at Apartipur in the block of Basudevpur of Bhadrak district for improving the reading habits of the people. And during the year – 2006-2007, “Raja Ram Mohan Ray National library” Culcutta has provided books amounting to Rs. 44,000/- only to this library.
At present there are more than 200 regular members, associated with the library. News papers and magazines are also bought to the library regularly. Day-by-day, this institution is earning good name in the area.
