Library

With the establishment of LEDeG as an NGO in the year 1983 an information resources centre was also established with an idea to inform local people about different appropriate technologies and environmental and social issues around the world. The said information centre was upgraded with time. Currently it has a huge collection of priceless books, literature and publications.
