Dear Jadhav

Delivery of Books and Newspapers (Public Libraries) Act, 1954, the National
Library, Calcutta is entitled to receive a copy of every publication brought out by anyone anywhere in thecountry.

As amended by the Delivery of Books ( Public Libraries) Amendment Act, 1956: No. 99 of 1956.], later

Govt. of India notified

1. Connemara Public Library, Madras

2. Asiatic Society Library, Bombay

3. Delhi Public Library, Delhi

These three libraries located in different regions of the country as Libraries of National Importance 

Dear Giri Sir, 

                 Sorry to give late rply to you, But regarding to subject I think there are four libraries Under Delivery of Books and Newspapers (Public Libraries) Act, 1954, there of

     

1. Connemara Public Library, Madras

2. Asiatic Society Library, Bombay

3. Delhi Public Library, Delhi

4.National Library, Calcutta.

        So please confirm about this details. 

Thank you Sir.

Dear Jadav

Please read the books available on subjects. It is very simple that you will put query here, people will reply, but please read the books try to get the answers by your own. If you are a library science professional, you should not be depended for such basic question.
If you want to become a player in this filed...try to give answers rather than the asking.

Just, it is my way of working. Don't take it personal please.

Respected Kumar Sir,

         Sorry for late to give you reply. I agree with your suggestion. And finally I got the answer of my own effords.

But there is querry in our field, very few books are available to give an Unique information. So please suggest something.

if any body ask question we have not to any objection. because some time our concept permantley cleared when we discuss. And Mr mukesh kumar fo kind your knowledge discussion method is the best method than reading books. its my personal views others may be differnt

national library kolkata

1) National Library of  India

2) Delhi Public Library Delhi

3) Connemara Public Library, Madras

4) State Central Library of each state

national library kolkata

delievery of book act came in 1954. bt due to modification this act came in 1956 delievery of books and newspaper act . this act apply for national library Kolkata which is our national library.

LIS Professionals should be encourage to ask questions and the professional forums are best place to get the best answer.

1) Connemara public library
2) Delhi Public library
3) national library of India
4) Asiatic society of Bombay.

Not state central library of each state...

National Library, Kolkata
