Dear Sir, It gives me immence pleaser to wish you for the initiation of the Children Library in villege. As you asked the suggetions you can more concentare on pictographic sources. I think CDs of morel stories and oter scientific events can deffinetly help the child, who has not exposed to the technology and also these materials will attract them and develops the curiocity in understanding new things. The role of the Librarian is very important and must be effective. As you said indoor games is again a best way to attract the child. I wish you best of luck and you can expect help from me and others... with regards Ishwar Bandi Yahoo! India Matrimony: Find your life partneronline.

Dear All This is with reference to the posting marked at no. 4 in today's topics. I enquired from the NICD Library, New Delhi about the article and was informed by Mrs Sashi Talwar, the Librarian that they have already dispatched this article to WHO Geneva since they also received this request from them directly. I just thought to share with all of you in the group about it. I have also written to Mr Tomas Allen informing him about it. Thanking you Yours faithfully Sangeeta Kaul Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph: a beginning, a struggle, and a victory.

Regarding Rural Library Collection
by Gowri Ravindranth 08 Feb '05

08 Feb '05

This is regarding Appasaheb Naikal's request for suggestions for collection development in a school library. I wish to share my personal experience with him: I have set up a small children's library in a village near Pondicherry spending money from my pocket to purchase books. It is actually a story reading session - we sit under a tree and I read stories to them in regional language and english and then explain it to them line by line. Sometimes we sing together. Children will tell a story, joke, riddles which they have learnt. We discuss current affairs since last class. Do craft work on alternate sessions. At the end of the session issue journal/books to them. Initially I collected the weekly supplements meant for children from the regional language newspapers and circulated them among the children. It helped me to identify the serious readers and their capacity to handle the reading material given to them. Recently I bought books in the Chennai Book Fair (i.e. the Fairs might help you to buy regional language books with a discount). Children's Book Trust, New Delhi might have a few regional language publications. You may check with your Government's Directorate of Public Libraries for possible help. I heard Infosys's Sudha Murthy is interested in establishing School Libraries in rural Karnataka. She might help you. I keep play material like Chess, Box of crayons and papers, Carrom, Tic Toe etc., They wish to have skipping ropes, volleyball or football - I tactfully declined this request since it will not keep them focused on 'reading' People might be willing to pay subscription for children's magazines should you let them know about your efforts. Hope the information will be of use. Regards L. R. Gowri, Reference Librarian, AIRC, Chennai 600 006 The real power of teamwork. Experience it in real time. http://g.msn.com/8HMAENIN/2749??PS=47575 Experience MS Office System.
