The Birth Of H.I.S.'s Very Own Mini-Library

We have finally arrived! We now have our very own Mini-Library. And it is all thanks to our Director, Madam Koh Sai Fong - whose affiliation with the National Library Board has seen it donating some 130 books to help us create the library we have been longing for.

We also have a good mix of titles, ranging from local favourites like 'The Red Cheongsam & Home and Away' to adventure ones like 'Harry Potter, Troll Blood and Atherton’. Adding to the spice are popular novels like ‘The Shadow Of The Wind, The Outlaw Varjak Paw, The Namesake and The Alchemist’. For those planning to get married in the very near future, there is a ‘Wedding Planner’ to choose from while those who gun for excitement can take home a read like ‘Flying High In A Competitive Industry’.

Even those with special interest are not left out. If you like Japanese living lifestyles, you can look up the book titled ‘Japanese Design’, or if you have an interest in Peranakan culture, you can pick up ‘The Straits Chinese House’.

If these are not enough, we also have a collection of Malay, Indian and Chinese Novels. Small though the library may be, it does pack a solid punch with such a diverse mix of interesting books. Come and take a look for yourself.

Borrowing is easy. Just select the book you like (limit to a maximum of three at a time), record your name on the booklist provided and that’s it. We will leave it to you to decide when you want to return it. We trust that you will keep in mind that you will return the books as soon as you are done reading so that others may have a chance to enjoy what you have enjoyed.

Come then and pick up a book today. Do not delay, it’s first come, first serve.

Happy Reading!
