Rural Library Movement
Bansa Community Library is the second library in the ‘Rural Library Movement’– an initiative to set up and sustain community-run libraries in the villages of India.
The first library under this initiative was established in Cheruia village (District Balia), and the third – and the most recent one – was set up
in Kalyanpur village (District Hardoi).
These libraries operation is locally managed by the community members and remotely supported by volunteers and patrons.
