Community Outreach & Dissemination Creating awareness about palm-leaf manuscripts, and the need for preservation, was one of the main aims of this project. Many people have only heard of manuscripts and have never seen them in real life, or even digitally. Thus, we held four community outreach events to engage the public in this project. The original intention of these events was to help identify custodians. Although these events did not help in identifying custodians directly, they helped in building rapport and awareness about the mission of the project. The most successful of these events was the Palm-leaf manuscripts exhibition held toward the end of the project. It was held over a three day period and over 400 people attended the exhibition, including students, custodians, librarians, and researchers. More than fifty people provided written feedback about the event, which was overwhelmingly positive. The event received wide media coverage, including via newspaper, television, radio and online media. As noted above, the palm-leaf manuscript reading workshop was also very successful.

Community Outreach & Dissemination Creating awareness about palm-leaf manuscripts, and the need for preservation, was one of the main aims of this project. Many people have only heard of manuscripts and have never seen them in real life, or even digitally. Thus, we held four community outreach events to engage the public in this project. The original intention of these events was to help identify custodians. Although these events did not help in identifying custodians directly, they helped in building rapport and awareness about the mission of the project. The most successful of these events was the Palm-leaf manuscripts exhibition held toward the end of the project.
