The Nehru Centre library is an underused and underappreciated space. A cavernous room with sunlight pouring in from one side, the 80-seater reference library, with more than 30,000 titles, is mostly used by students working on projects or appearing for their competitive exams, or senior citizens, who shuffle in for their daily papers. It's usually half-filled, even though it's a free space, because walk-ins aren't allowed to bring their own books in. However, in the golden months of May and June, this rule is relaxed.

Librarian Arati Desai initiated Let's Read Together in the summer of 2015 to get families to explore books together. She reasons, "There are many families who don't go out of town to holiday [during summer vacations]. So, the kids are sent to camps all over the city, just to kill time.
