Virajpet-Kodagu: Bookworms in Virajpet, rejoice! There’s a brand-new hangout in town catering specifically to your love of all things literary. The Book Barter Club, situated at Shanbagh Center on Ramamurthy Road, promises a treasure trove of pre-loved books and a warm atmosphere for fellow bibliophiles to connect.
Senior advocate from the town, Jagadish is the brain behind this initiative. The advocate had a personal library with overflowing bookshelves. The idea of starting the club struck him when he visited the United States and found such clubs being run. Jagadish decided to replicate the same idea in Virajpet, and as a result, the Book Barter Club was born.
What exactly is it? If you have books with finished reads, just head to Book Barter Club to exchange them for something new. By this way, one can read a new book and may find a hidden gem also.
The idea is not just a club for swapping books; one can visit the club to spend quality and relaxed time while flipping the pages of the books, having coffee, or favorite juice.
The club also welcomes donations of gently-used books. So, anyone having a collection of books gathering dust at home can donate here or swap it for a new book. It’s a win-win situation for both the donor and the reader.
