Our Library has a large collection of rare books published since the advent of printing technology. The library also preserves a large collection of classical Tamil documents in the form of palm-leaf and paper manuscripts. Steps are being taken to digitize such rare Tamil works. Among the thousands of classical Tamil books, the Institute has digitized a select few the facsimile copies of which are shown below:
