"Bookworm is a library for children that operates out of the locality of Taleigão, near the capital city of Panjim (Panaji) in Goa, India.
The lending library is aimed "for children of all ages and abilities" and has dedicated spaces for creative activities and reading. Bookworm also runs a "program of workshops for both children and parents." It promotes cultural activities—with a needlecraft group, book discussions, a pre-school program and an adult art program. The library is located near St Michael's Church in Taleigao.
Bookworm was launched in 2005 by Elaine Mendonsa and Sujata Noronha, both educators, with the aim of creating a library and learning space to enhance literacy and the love of books amongst the children of Goa."
