Library Grant 2021 - 2022 : Painting Department Library, MSU

Overview

Mrinalini Mukherjee Foundation’s Library Grant for the purchase of books to the Painting Department Library at the Faculty of Fine Arts, MS University of Baroda, has allowed the school to acquire over 40 new titles for their library. The new books focus on expanding the collection’s focus on Contemporary Asian and World Art.

The Painting Department Library has over 1600 books and was set up through the generous donation of books by students, staff, and philanthropists.
