The importance of Indian libraries to the country's knowledge system and their important role in its preservation shall be the main topics of this essay. With the goal of encouraging multidisciplinary research via preservation and dissemination, the 2020 education strategy has placed a strong emphasis on the Indian knowledge system. The Indian Knowledge System (IKS) is a priceless cultural legacy that offers insightful information and environmentally friendly methods. However, traditional knowledge is seriously threatened at a time of fast technological development, cultural uniformity, and globalization. With a rich history spanning thousands of years, the Indian knowledge system covers a broad range of topics, such as mathematics, astronomy, philosophy, medicine, and more. Libraries are essential for maintaining, sharing, and expanding this information. Ancient Indian libraries housed literary works, scientific papers, philosophical treatises, and holy writings. Libraries were centers for talks, debates, and intellectual interaction in addition to being locations to store books. The preservation of information, manuscripts, artifacts, and historical items is the duty of libraries that function as administrators. An extensive review of the state of the art in traditional knowledge preservation is given in this study.
