Hi Sagun, I am forwarding your mail to Rama dai, Roshendra, Jwalanta, and Jitendra, the concerned persons from Help Nepal Network.
Help Nepal is also deploying about 3-4 e-Library projects at the moment in different districts. Let us hear from them if they would be able to collaborate in this project. Cheers, Subir PS: Jitendra has been coordinating in deploying e-Library projects presently.
