Dictionaries for Schools

Reference Library Project

 

Hundreds of titles were selected for the Trust's gift of a Library to serve the schools of Kohima. The goal is to provide a collection of vocational books as well as atlases, encyclopedias and dictionaries. The KET reference library is currently located in the main town library building.

More recently we've added to the library to include books about the Burma campaign and the battle of Kohima. This has proved popular for students wanting to learn a part of history of their land.  

Thanks to one of our founding members, Keith Halnan, we were also able to purchase a medical textbook library, after consultation with local doctors.

 

Dictionaries for High Schools

 

KES gave a good dictionary to every Nagaland High School. Following a survey of teachers, the Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary was selected. This is just the sort of practical, small scale project that KES felt was a very effective step towards fulfilling their aims and those of KET.
