he Galle Library, which stands next to the Dutch Reformed Church (or Groote Kerk) on Church Street in the historic Galle Fort, was established in the year 1832 and is likely the oldest public library in Sri Lanka. Several old and special texts may be found within its bookcases. The city of Velsen in the Netherlands is a sister city to Galle, and the Velsen Public Library has shipped many English-language books to the Galle Library.

A very cute historical looking library. It says it's the oldest library in Sri Lanka. I would have loved to visit it but it had a closed gate. Also the sign "members only" seems to indicate they do not welcome visitors. Several places, museums, etc. in Galle Fort seem to be closed on Mondays. Or else closed for renovations.
