A large‑scale scanning project has been launched to digitise rare ancient palm‑leaf manuscripts and old Kannada novels, making them freely available on the internet for future generations.
A major digitisation project for Kannada literature has been initiated, aiming to scan and preserve some of the language's rarest ancient palm‑leaf manuscripts and historic novels.
The effort focuses on converting these fragile, historically significant works into digital format so that they can be accessed freely on the internet, ensuring that the next generation can read and study them without physical constraints.
The scanning operation is being carried out on a large scale, with the intent to create a comprehensive online repository of these literary treasures. By making the texts available digitally, the project seeks to safeguard the cultural heritage of Kannada literature and promote wider readership.
Stakeholders anticipate that the free online availability of these works will support scholars, students, and the general public, fostering deeper engagement with Karnataka's rich literary tradition.
