Library cum Reading room in smaller villages
I would like to invite a discussion on "how effective would be providing a reading room/library in underpriveleged villages, towards furthering education for the masses".
Logistically, it should require very minimal effort to bootstrap the idea. Premises could be rented and it could have the bare minimum facilities of a working desk, some chairs and good lighting arrangement. Over time, the premises can be used as a platform for enabling computer literacy. Maybe it can have minimalistic collection of textbooks to start with. It is not too difficult to mobilise used school/college textbooks from bigger cities.
Key Question: Is it a need felt by the student community?
Survey Question: Did you feel such a need while obtaining education?
