GK Krishnaswamy

My father who is 61 became a member of the TVM library in the year 1964. We as a family cannot think of TVM without the British Library which has been a source of endless interactions with people, books and cultural activities. We are not just saddened by the imminent closure of
the library: we are devastated. Almost the very first thing we brothers do, when we arrive in Trivandrum, is to head for the British library. In our lives the British library ranks next only to the Padmanabha Swamy temple.

I don't know how successful your effort at persuading the authorities to retain the library will be. But if there is anything we can do, please let us know. KS.
