    Library is a treasure house of books and is capable of meeting almost all the

    information needs of people. Libraries are temples of knowledge, education/learning,

    where generations of young and old get enlightenment on the achievements of mankind.

    Goa can be legitimately proud of having one of the oldest libraries in India as well as in

    Asia which has enriched Goan cultural and educational life.

    1. Krishnadas Shama Goa State Central Library:

    The State Central Library occupies the pride of the place among the public libraries

    in India, especially for its collection on Goan History and Culture. The Central Library is

    the oldest Public Library in India established on 15th September 1832 by Vice Roy Dom

    Manuel de Portugal e Castro as `Publica Livaria`. Four years earlier to Calcutta Public

    Library, 1836. (The National Library of India) It was changed to Bibliotheca Publica

    and enriched with bibliographical repository t1ransferred from the Convents run by

    religious orders, which were suppressed. However, the collection on Mathematics and

    Military Science was left in Academia and books on Administrative and Legislative

    matters were transferred to Secretariat Library. On 15th

    February 1897 the status of

    library was raised to that of a ‘National Library’ and renamed as `Bibliotheca Nacional de

    Nova Goa`. In March 1925, it was annexed to the academic and cultural institution

    (Instituto Vasco da Gama) and designated as “Biblioteca Nacional Vasco da Gama” by

    Decree Law no.38684 dated 18th

    March 1952. Under this Decree the privilege of

    `Deposito Legal` (Delivery Act) was made applicable to this library by virtue of which

    the library received all publication from Portugal and her overseas Provinces. From

    September 1959, the Bibliotheca was detached from the Instituto Vasco-da-Gama and put

    under the administrative control of ‘Servicos de Instruccao e Saude’ (Education and

    Health Services); it was then renamed as “Biblioteca Nacional de Goa”. The collection

    of pre-liberation period consists mainly of books and journals in Portuguese, French,

    Latin, English and very few books in local language like Konkani and Marathi. The total

    pre-liberation collection was about 37,100 volumes.

    1

  • The earliest book available is Reportorium Cingularioum Super, Toto, Codice,

    Lugdini by Baldi published in 1539. The collection of the library has manuscripts and

    codices in Portugues, Castilian, Latin, Tamil, Ceylonese, Canary and Konkani dating

    th thsince 17 and 18 century.

    The collection of the local newspapers includes the publication of Estado da India

    Portuguesa since 1856 to 1961 and then from 1961 to present day publication.

    The library is an important center for Indo-Portuguese studies as well as

    Portuguese colonial history. It is also a repository of Indo Portuguese Literature. The

    other important collection is of “Boletim Official” (Official Gazette) dating since 1837

    till date.

    Further, State Central Library is acting as a repository of books published in State

    under the provision of the Delivery of Books Act, 1954. To support the library

    movement the Government of Goa has passed and enacted the Goa Public Libraries Act,

    1993.

    Present Status of Library:

    Government in an effort to inculcate reading habits among the youth and to

    encourage research has set up a six floor library in the heart of the city at Patto, Panaji –

    Goa. Central Library is the State Library and apex of Public Library system in Goa. It

    has under its control Seven Taluka Libraries and one District Library. Besides Goa has
