Preserving timeless wisdom.
05/05/2026
We just received very good news from our friends and colleagues from the Varanasi Center!
Recently the team there, held one more Internship Program. The attending people, —whom you can see here— gained knowledge about how language plays a vital role in transferring cultural heritage to future generations.
Dr. Santosh Kumar Dwivedi —whom you may remember from our previous reels— shared that this Internship, which you are helping funding, is based on the transliteration program, which follow the IAST Method.
"We teach them how transliteration helps in this field. Bridging Language and script, Preserving Pronunciation, Search and Accessibility, Colonial and Modern historical records, Cultural Exchange and Globalization." he said.
Your contribution to ALL is helping to empower a new generation of cultural stewards. Leadership in this work ensures that the transmission of Sanskrit heritage continues into the future.
And that's what Asian Legacy Library is all about!
And, as always, we would like to express our gratitude to Dr. Santosh for his dedication and meaningful work, we at ALL couldn't be happier to have him as part of the team.
Joel Crawford, Director of Technology at the Asian Legacy Library, reflects on the significance of ALL’s mission of preservation.
The ideas held within the books ALL preserves in collaboration with our partners worldwide have the potential to benefit all: scholars, practitioners, and everyday people across the world. None of this could happen without the effort and care of so many supporters, friends, and colleagues who work together to ensure the wisdom held inside ancient texts can continue to inspire and inform us all.
Thank you for making this work possible, from Joel and all of us at ALL. You can visit our library at: https://library.asianlegacylibrary.org/.
Emma Lewis, Executive Director of the Asian Legacy Library (ALL), reflects on the enduring thread that connects ALL’s work across time.
As scanning equipment grows more sophisticated, as digital libraries expand their reach, and as new generations discover these traditions in entirely new ways, ALL's mission holds steady. Whether the work is taking place in our preservation centers in Nepal, India, or Mongolia, the foundation remains the same: to ensure that the profound literary and philosophical heritage of Asia is sustained.
