Bluminut for a greater cause. [ Bliblio - Bluminut Library]

For quite sometime we have been thinking of using Bluminut platform for a greater cause. This is an initative towards that.

A few completely random statistics towards Indian Education System would be something like,

  • About 60% of what we study will not help us on our job.
  • About 85% of us wont go back to our books to refer something or anything for that matter.
  • About 80% of us change our stream from what we learnt to something else based on our need or opportunities.
  • Only 1 student out of every 14000 is getting higher education in India [Courtesy:Neoncarrot]
  • About 99% of the Indians (let me add 0.99% more to it) do not know what FOSS is, in softwares.

So what can we do? Although we cannot individually solve the whole of the world's problems, we can take responsibility for this social cause and contribute our bit.

Bluminut has launched a new module called Library. You can put up all the LEGAL Books, Softwares, CDs, anything you have up here and people who would want to Borrow it / Pay for it can pick them up. If it is not too much for you to ask, we would like to request you to give it for FREE and we will try to direct it to the needy.

Disclaimer: We do not sell / make profit or any such things from your books. This site is merely a platform for you to share your resources and interested people will be directed to you. This site holds no responsibility for the quality of book or the transaction itself.

Instruction: Go to Create Content on your left Panel to create a Biblio (Greek: Pertaining to Books) and add your details. When you publish, if you dont want it to appear on the front page, do so by un-checking it in Publishing Options.

Guys.

You can't download or upload the books from this site. Instead we are planning to share the links from where you can get them. We still need to re-check the legal aspects of it.

Otherwise you just put up the book name here and the interested people will comment to your article and collect it from you.

Warm Regards.
