We really enjoyed this visit of Lok Milap. We got a golden chance to talk with Mahendra Meghani (Son of Zaverchand Meghani). Lok Milap will be closed nearby February, 2020.He told about his experience of Lok Milap.

 Here, I want to share a blog link of Dhaval Diyora who mentioned very well all the details which was told by Mahendra Meghani.  (https://dhavalddiyora.blogspot.com/2020/01/blog-post_23.html) .

We found so many books there. We could find Gujarati books as well as English books. Autobiographical books, religious books, inspirational books, children literature, English literature, Gujarati literature, etc.  I observed, people gets more interest in the books like Amish Tripathi (Sita,  Ravan, Ram, Meluhana,  Nagas...)  Zaverchand Meghani's books , Manto,  Kundanika Kakadiya, Kajal Oza Veidya, Paulo Coelho, Chandra kant Bakshi, Gunvant Shah,  Raghuvir Chaudhry, Chetan Bhagat also and many others. So many interesting books are there. Many students bought the books from Lok Milap. The atmospherephere of the book stall is very peaceful and very clean and the light sweet music was playing in the background. Today I could realise the importance of literature in our life through this visit.

Here I want to mention some important points about Library.

Importance of books
Books are very important in our life. Books are the best friend who will never walk away from us. They are with full of knowledge, insights into a happy life, life lessons, love, fear, prayer and helpful device.

Founder of the library
The Library Company of Philadelphia, founded in 1731 by Benjamin Franklin and a group of his friends, became the first American subscription library. The Library Company, while founded as a membership library, did allow members to borrow books, and so may have been the first truly public library.

Importance of libraries
Libraries are important because it gives people the opportunity to experience new ideas, get lost in wonderful stories, while at the same time providing a sense of place for gathering.

Purpose of the libraries
The purpose of the library is to provide resources and services in a variety of media to meet the needs of individuals and groups for education,information and personal development including recreation and leisure.

Atmosphere of the Library
Atmospheric variables include sight, sound, scent, and the general feel of both the exterior architecture and interior design of the library.

So, through all these points we can say that library is very important in our life.
Special thanks to Dhaval Diyora  Who took a permission to talk with Mahendra Meghani.

Also heartly thnks to @Dilipbarad sir who granted the permission to visit this precious place.

Hence, he said that poet should know ...
