Book Sorting and Distribution: Club volunteers and office bearers sorted the books according to grade and subject, ensuring that the library setup would be easy to use and accessible for students of all levels. Library Organization: Students were guided on how to care for and maintain books properly, focusing not on technical systems like cataloguing, but on developing respect for books and good library habits.
