The Community Library Project

The Community Library Project is animated by the idea that all people should have access to books, and thinking through books; and that this can be accomplished by creating libraries that allow people to borrow books at no cost. We are concerned with building a library movement that promotes libraries that welcome all and provide an inclusive space for members to come together to articulate their ideas and issues.

Duniya Sabki, the digital branch of TCLP, is a multi-platform space used and run by members across library branches to access reliable information and news, reading material, read-alouds, and video and audio programs that speak directly to members’ own stories that are often under-represented in mainstream media. We reach 2100+ member-families and over 200 educators through our WhatsApp and Telegram channels. Three times a week members receive videos, reading materials, and audios directly on their phones, some of which can also be accessed on the TCLP YouTube channel.
