Reading Room by Pocket Diary Book Club

What is Reading Room?

Over time with the support and contribution of donating members, we have created a small collection of 800+ books at our studio. On the request of our members, wishing to sit in silence, browse the bookshelves at the studio and read, we opened this space for readers.

How can I access the reading room?

This is a small setup where we accommodate 10 readers at a time, a seat is booked by prior appointment only.

Timing

Open Tuesday to Saturday: 11 am to 6 pm

We announce the closed dates on our Instagram ID. Please check our Instagram story before booking.

Please respect the allotted timing to ensure smooth functioning and experience for all.

Decorum

• Complete silence has to be maintained to ensure other readers are not disturbed.
• Please do not bring books from outside to read in the reading room (except books for donation).

Can I bring my own books?

No. We are opening with the sole purpose of promoting the concept of donating and reading donated books.

Can I donate books?

नेकी और पूछ-पूछ!

Quoting a member, “If it’s at the library all the members including me will be able to read. At my home, it will be only for a few people.”

Can I donate money?

Gladly yes. The money received as donation is used to purchase books for the reading room, to maintain the library and its expenses.

Can I work or prepare for my exam in the reading room?

No. That is a different category of reading room meant for studies and work. In this reading room people who wish to browse and read from the collection are welcome.
