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.

Dec. 22, 2008 | Team Reflections | OLE Nepal
We are the guys from upstairs who play loud music and disturb everyone else. Currently, there are eleven interns working for OLE Nepal. All of us are intelligent, hard-working, and energetic young high school graduates committed to helping change the Nepalese education system. We were too lazy to apply to colleges while still in school, so we had a year with nothing to do. Fortunately, OLE Nepal beckoned us, and now we have something interesting and worthwhile to fill our time with. Some of us are seasoned veterans who have worked long hours until late at night on weekends to meet deadlines. Others are newbies who grumble all the time about not having their own desktops.
