Subject: Request for More Reference Books in Library

Respected Sir,
Our school library has very few reference books for science and history. These books are important for projects and exam preparation. I request you to kindly add more reference books so that students can study in detail and improve their understanding.

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,
Anjali Verma
