Book Donations to the Saraha Institute Library

All of our books are products of kind donations to the Institute. We regularly receive donations of individual books and even entire personal library collections from people near and far. Apart from books, we also welcome donations of other media, such as video and audio resources. If you would like to drop off items for the library, you can do that by calling ahead, or simply visiting the Institute during regular open hours.
