Punjabi Wikimedians/GLAM/Guerilla GLAM

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Guerilla GLAM[1] that we are currently doing at a library to digitize public domain books. We have digitized 6 books as of now and it was tough to get context on some of them.

This is going to be very beneficial for Research scholars who have to physically go the library every day to access these books. Although, Punjabi Wikisource is still in its infancy but with projects like this, we will soon be able to reach a wide Punjabi audience especially Punjabi diaspora.

We found some manuscripts and had a hard time to figure out the year of publication to ensure that they are Public Domain.
