Karnataka's rural libraries have now enrolled more than 2 million children. This is the collective effort of librarians, panchayat officials, local elected representatives, teachers, & all the civil society organizations partnering with us - & great leadership by CEOs of ZPs.

Rural libraries have come alive with children's books, textbooks, computers, learning sessions, group study, digital content, & activities like chess, carrom, and storytelling. #kidsinlibraries

@indiacmca My Library for a Better Me takes the library right to the children’s doorstep. CMCA mentors regularly visit children’s homes to drop off activity cards and books and encourage students to come to their Panchayat library.

Libraries are kids’ favourite spaces to read, learn & play! “My library is the place I enjoy the most. I used to spend lots of time at home watching TV but now I love coming here to borrow books & hang out with friends.”-Bhagyashree, @indiacmca My Library for a Better Me member
