Rise of the micro-libraries
...in vans, on footpaths, inside NGOs
While litfests showcase big-ticket authors and attract the elite, they don’t really increase access to books. But beyond the gabfests and grand stages are a bunch of small libraries that are keeping India’s reading habit alive. Sonam Joshi profiles four ventures
SISTER LIBRARY, CURRENTLY IN KOCHI - Celebrating feminist lit
POETRY VAN, ON A ROAD TRIP - Bringing verse to the masses
COMMUNITY LIBRARY PROJECT, DELHI - Reading to first-gen readers
