Facilities included in the monthly fee

Personal cubicle

A partitioned desk with a chair that stays yours for the month. No shifting seats, no hunting for a table in the morning, and a lockable box for the books you do not want to carry home.

  • Desk, chair and charging point at every seat
  • Eighteen cubicles in one hall, never more
  • Your seat is held for the full shift you paid for

Fully AC hall

Air conditioning through the day, so the summer months do not decide how many hours you can sit.

Fibre Wi-Fi

High speed fibre internet for recorded lectures, online test series and exam form filling, at your own desk.

RO drinking water

Purified drinking water available through the day, included in the monthly fee.

Lockable book box

A personal locker so your books and notes stay at the library. The first month is free, then Rs 100 a month.

Charging point

A power point at every cubicle for laptops, tablets and phones during your shift.

Print, xerox and scan

Notes, previous year papers, admit cards and scans printed inside the library, charged per service at the counter.

House rules

The short list

Rules exist so that eighteen people can share one room without friction. They are few, and they are enforced.

  • Phones on silent inside the hallStep outside for calls, including short ones.
  • Headphones for lecturesWatch recorded classes with earphones, never on speaker.
  • Your cubicle, your shiftUse the slot you have paid for, and keep the desk clear at the end of it.
  • No food at the deskWater is fine. Meals are eaten outside the reading hall.
  • Renew on time to keep your seatSeats are released if a renewal is overdue, because someone else is waiting.

See it before you join

Visit during any shift and we will show you the hall, an empty cubicle and the locker. The first day of study is free.

Open every day, 6:00 am to 11:00 pm. Nona Chandanpukur, Barrackpore.
