E-Pustakalaya Launched (www.pustakalaya.org)
OLE Nepal has been working on its digital library, E-Pustakalaya, since the summer of 2008. The project has made significant progress, with the library now publicly launched and featuring basic functionalities. Additional content and features will be continuously added. In the early stages, the Nepal Library Foundation (NLF), Canada, provided startup funds to help OLE Nepal maintain a robust and publicly accessible website for E-Pustakalaya. This funding helped purchase a server for the library. From January 2009, NLF also extended support by hiring two full-time coordinators for content acquisition. These coordinators have been working with authors, publishers, and other relevant organizations to gather materials and establish an editorial board.

My first three weeks with OLE Nepal
Before coming to Kathmandu, my knowledge of OLPC and the XO was limited to what I had read in the news. I really have learned much in the last three weeks. My first lesson was that OLPC is not an implementation organization. Don't get me wrong, the development and distribution of an affordable laptop is great. It's the XO that initially drew me to OLE Nepal, however, there is so much more to the OLPC model than the XO.
