The Dastur Meherji-Rana Library displays various pictures that belong to the ancient town of Navsari. The library also has various sacred manuscripts of the Parsi community. It is believed to have been constructed by Navsariwala Seth Burjor Bamanji Padam, a Parsi, in 1872. In 1874, a committee was formed soon after the formal trust deed was drawn up. Jamshedji Kavasji Dastoor Meherji Rana presented the building to the committee in 1906. The entire structure, including the interior, is believed to have been renovated in 1999 with the help of the funds of the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust. These funds have also helped in adding facilities like a reading room, apartments for visiting scholars, conference hall and laboratory for storing rare books.
