ThinkBox is more than a library; it is a living, breathing community. From local donation drives and literary festivals to hands-on workshops, we create spaces where stories connect parents, children, and neighbours.

It was such a joy to be invited as the Guest of Honour to judge the literary competition at Capstone School's LitFest. The creativity and confidence of these young minds were truly inspiring.

A look at the judging sheet from the "Book Cover Redesign" event at Capstone's LitFest. It was wonderful to see students connect with their favorite stories through art and design.

Of course, while at Capstone School, I had to visit my favorite place: the library! There is nothing more magical than being surrounded by stories and eager readers.

Our book donation drive for Liktsey School in Ladakh was a huge success, thanks to our wonderful young members. They not only donated their books but also wrote personal messages to their new friends far away, just like the pen pals of the past.

We were so thrilled to be featured in OurBangalore Weekly! It was a proud moment for our entire community, and we loved seeing the joyful pictures of our little readers and their parents in the article.

We are in the newspaper again! We were featured in the Deccan Herald for our winter donation drive, where our community comes together to collect books and toys for underprivileged children. It is the spirit of giving that makes our community so special.

We were so happy to participate in Pratham Books' "One Day, One Story" program. We read "Goal!" and "Exam Fever," two amazing books that challenge stereotypes about gender roles and age, sparking important conversations with the children.

We were honored to receive this Certificate of Completion from Pratham Books for our participation in the "One Day, One Story" initiative. We are proud to help nurture a culture of reading in our community.

This was such a heartwarming moment. One of our experienced members took the time to explain our book collection and share her recommendations with a new member. This is what community is all about: sharing our love of reading.

About More Than a Library: Our Community

We believe reading is a shared experience. That is why our community regularly comes together for initiatives like book donation drives for schools in Ladakh and local literary festivals. When you join ThinkBox, you are not just subscribing to a service; you are becoming part of a group that values empathy, sharing resources, and raising curious children together.
