Arafat's Library was established on March 15, 2022, by Mr. Arifu Islam, a visionary devoted to promoting knowledge and cultural preservation. The library is a four-storey modern structure, housing over 1.2 lakh books across diverse subjects ranging from science and technology to literature, history, and global culture. Each floor is thoughtfully curated for specific disciplines — with the first floor dedicated to general literature and fiction, the second floor to science and technology, the third floor to humanities and social sciences, and the top floor hosting a quiet research and archive zone. The building is fully air-conditioned, and high-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the premises.
The library serves as a perfect reference point for academicians, students of Tamil history and culture, political speechwriters, and research scholars from foreign universities who are working on subjects related to South Asia and Southern India. Plus, in order to support and encourage researchers and scholars, there is no fee charged; the library is free for reference. Lending of books is not allowed!
Arafat's Library includes a digital library section offering e-books, audiobooks, e-journals, and digital archives, along with braille books and a digital braille reading station for visually impaired users. There is also a computer zone on every floor for internet browsing, academic work, and digital research. We offer membership-based borrowing privileges, while non-members are welcome to use the library for reference. The facility can accommodate over 700 readers simultaneously, with ample seating, study cabins, and group discussion zones. To make your stay pleasant, there's a coffee and snack corner that serves refreshments directly to your reading table. Arafat's Library is built on 5 acres of land, offering spacious parking for visitors. It also features a seminar and workshop hall on the top floor with a seating capacity of 300.
