Best Friends Race Across City to Break Library-Hopping Record

“In an inspiring display of friendship, determination, and love for books, two best friends from New Delhi set out on an extraordinary mission—to break the record for the most libraries visited in a single day.

Armed with backpacks, metro cards, and an ambitious route map, the duo began their journey at sunrise. Their goal was simple yet challenging: visit as many public, private, and institutional libraries across the city as possible within 24 hours. From historic reading halls to modern digital learning centers, the friends navigated through traffic, crowded streets, and tight schedules to make their dream a reality.

Their journey included stops at well-known knowledge hubs, including the iconic Delhi Public Library and the prestigious Nehru Memorial Museum & Library. At each location, they documented their visit with official stamps, photographs, and short reading sessions to ensure authenticity.

The idea for the record attempt was born out of their shared passion for literature and community spaces. “Libraries are more than just buildings with books,” one of the friends said. “They are places where imagination begins and knowledge grows.”

Throughout the day, they relied heavily on the city’s metro network to move quickly between destinations. Supporters followed their progress through social media updates, cheering them on as they crossed each new milestone.”
