The Social Science Baha Library is located at Ramchandra Marga, Battisputali (branching off the Battisputali main road towards Ram Mandir from opposite Hotel Dwarika's).

The library is open only to members. Membership can be obtained by filling out an application form. Part of the application form has to be filled out by someone who can vouch for the applicant. The voucher can be the head of the concerned university department, college principal, office head, or anyone in a similar capacity.

A nominal annual fee is charged. The rates are different for student, ordinary and institutional members but these are modest and affordable. A one-time membership fee will be charged as well as an annual library fee. These fees will be modest for individual members, while institutions will be asked to pay slightly higher rates. Provisions have also been made for short-term temporary membership. The library rules provide full details of the fee structure and the different kinds of membership.

The library is solely a reading and reference collection. It does not operate on a lending basis. There is a well-lit, comfortable reading room, and access to the shelves is through the attending librarians. The reading room is equipped with computers to provide users with access to in-house and online resources.

Library hours: 10 am to 5 pm, Sunday to Thursday; 10 am to 2 pm, Friday.
The library remains closed on Saturdays, selected public holidays, and the first Sunday of the international calendar month.
