The National Library is located on Belvedere Road in Alipore, is the largest library in India by volume. From 1854 to 1911, the building served as the residence of the lieutenant-governors of Bengal. The building was built in the 1760s, almost immediately its owner became Warren Hastings, the first Governor-General of India. In 1780, he stated that he had sold it, and from that moment until 1854, when it became the official residence of the lieutenant-governors of Bengal, nothing was known about the fate of the mansion. It served as a residence until 1911. Since 1948, used by the library. The first major replenishment was 4,675 publications transported here from Fort William College by Governor-General Charles Metcalf.

The Anna Centenary Library

Adding another feather to its intellectual cap, Chennai is now home to South Asia’s largest library. So if you are a book lover and need a break from the city’s commotion, this is the place for you. The Anna Centenary Library is an eight-story structure that has recently added to the city’s growing modern landscape in the Kotturpuram area. A Braille section, children’s corner, replica of the "Tree of Knowledge," an auditorium and an amphitheater make quite an impression on visitors.
