Library and Reading Room
Shrimati Hansa Mehta Library, the University Library of M S University of Baroda, was established on May 1, 1950. At the time of establishment of M. S. University of Baroda, a collection of 25,000 books belonging to the two state libraries (Huzur Political Office and Secretariat Library) was handed over to the University Library. There were several colleges in Baroda: Baroda College (for Arts), Science Institute, Commerce College, and Secondary Teacher’s Training College etc. These colleges had libraries of their own. They continued to remain as Faculty Libraries and were administered independently. Thus, the university Library System was established on 1 May 1950, housed in the central block of Old Residency Office Building.
The Faculty of Law holds its own library, comprising books of all areas of law. It subscribes to journals, e-journals and magazines.

Famous quotes containing the words library, reading and/or room:
“A man’s library is a sort of harem.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Reading about ethics is about as likely to improve one’s behavior as reading about sports is to make one into an athlete.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The line of separation was very distinct, and the Indian immediately remarked, “I guess you and I go there,—I guess there’s room for my canoe there.” This was his common expression instead of saying “we.” He never addressed us by our names, though curious to know how they were spelled and what they meant, while we called him Polis. He had already guessed very accurately at our ages, and said that he was forty-eight.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
