Ancient palm leaf Jain texts to be digitised for posterity - Pune Mirror The Dhavalatraya Jain Kashi Trust of the Jain Mutt, Moodabidri, located about 35 km from Mangalore, has decided to go the Microsoft and Google way. To preserve, archive and to make its centuries old palm leaf manuscripts available to a wider audience, the mutt has decided to digitise them. Swasti Shri 'Bharata Bhushana' Bhattaraka Charukeerthi Panditacharyavarya Mahaswamiji of the Jain Mutt, who is overseeing the process, revealed that about 1,500 of the 4,500 manuscripts which the mutt possesses have already been digitised. "The process of digitisation has been going on for the last three years," Panditacharyavarya Mahaswamiji said. http://bit.ly/1kOnVJj Source: http://www.punemirror.in/news/india/Ancient-palm-leaf-Jain-texts-to-be-digitised-for-posterity/articleshow/36063579.cms See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/1kOnVJj+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: https://bitly.com/pages/sidebar To view the list archives go to: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=RECORDS-MANAGEMENT-UK To unsubscribe from this list, send an email to [log in to unmask] with the words UNSUBSCRIBE RECORDS-MANAGEMENT-UK For any technical queries re JISC please email [log in to unmask] For any content based queries, please email [log in to unmask]
