The Maharashtra Mitra Mandal Library celebrates its 13th anniversary today. Popularly known as the MCubed library, it is nestled in a quiet lane amidst the bustling streets of Bandra. What began as a children’s library in 2011 expanded within a year of its opening, into a space that houses books for grown-ups as well. The team at the library has since witnessed a welcoming community of supporters. Their journey, however, wasn’t always smooth.
