About In the Spotlight: Press & Recognition

When parents choose a space for their children, they want to know the values behind it. We are humbled to have been featured in publications like Deccan Herald and OurBangalore, and recognized as a BetterIndia Hero. These aren't just accolades; they reflect the long years of laughter, reading, and learning we have shared with families right here in Malleshpalya. It confirms that the space we have built is not just a library, but a second home for your curious little ones.

I started ThinkBox because I couldn't find the right library for my son, and seeing how much our little community in Malleshpalya has grown has been a dream. Every award and press feature we have received is really a tribute to the kids and parents who make this space what it is.
