One of the activities at DeshGujarat is to collect old, vanishing, out of print Gujarati books which are really worth and are so special that we Gujarati people can not afford to loose them.

For this cause DeshGujarat visits ‘Gujari bazaar’ in Ahmedabad frequently, and scan the old-discarded book selling area there, in search of such books. DeshGujarat is proud owner of some hundred books of this kind.

Some books are so wonderful that they deserve reprint but it is a costly affair and even after reprint, selling them may be another problem area. In such circumstances audio book can be the answer.

‘Haiye mandi Haatadi’ was the book written by late Shri Dr. Haribhai Godani in 1980. The book is no more available anywhere for last several years. DeshGujarat fetched it from ‘Gujari market’. This book has amazing documentation and real as well as folk stories which were written after hard field work by writer.
