The agonizing news that BL will soon be shut down stares us in the face. But the collective effort to swell the chorus of protest is as much heartening as it is shocking to think that the library is going to be a thing of the past soon. At a time when book-reading habit is waning, it is all the more heartbreaking that a library igniting love of books is going to be closed. The place was everyone's favourite not because it has good carpets, downy sofas or air-conditioned comfort, but because here people read, contemplated, took notes, got newer insights and exchanged ideas. Wish and pray the proposed closure does not really happen. Wish the decision is not final. Wish there is light at the end of the tunnel. I say Amen. And I can hear many other voices saying the same with me. We shall overcome.
