I'm just vidu

It was a great experience to study in the library. Even though it's pandemic time, they still allow students to go and study there. You habe to give a prior call and book a table or you can go and book a seat too. It's better to give a prior notice if you're going to bring a laptop or if you need power supply. Cut not all the desks have power supplies with them. They specially give you a separate place if you need a power supply. It was really good experience. You have to pay 50 rupees per year if yore not a membe of the library. The staff is really friendly too. I'll recommend for anyone who prefer study or work at library.

One of the best places to study in Colombo. The annual membership is just Rs. 52 to study. Closed on wednesdays and poya days. I would suggest if the place is opened on Wednesday in near future.

It has a very good collection of books for lending. It may not be sophisticated as western country but it's good. The staff is helpful and friendly and they may suggest you some informative advance as well.

The largest public library in Sri Lanka with an extensive lending and reference collection. Separate areas for kids collection, newspaper & periodicals and also for study. Very reasonable membership rates and lending terms. Staff is making an effort to host various events as well. Personally don't like the replacement hard leather covers applied on books but cannot be helped in a public library with large circulation, I guess

Most important place in Colombo. Huge collection of books in three languages. For adults and children. A study room facility for students to study freely. A newspaper section. Reference section. And additionally there are numerous exhibitions, lectures and sales at the public library hall. Surely.. The most important place in Colombo.
