Video: The Sikh Coalition Library Project
(April 24, 2007) New York, New York - The Sikh Coalition released a video explaining it's Library Project today. The video features Librarian Laurie Bolger and Professor IJ Singh, who have both provided invaluable assistance in defining and executing the Project. The goal of the Library Project is to place a package of 10 books and 2 DVDs on Sikhs and Sikh issues in every library in North America.
We are calling on all Sikhs to sponsor at least one package of ten books and 2 DVDs for their local library as part of the Library Project. Over the long term, education is the best way to ensure a safe environment for the Sikh way of life. Sikhs know that once people understand our faith, they will embrace Sikhs as people who stand for equality, justice, and human rights for all.
Ordering a package of books for your library will take no longer than 5 minutes. Our online ordering system ensures your donation information is safe and secure and that you can track the status of your order. It is an easy four step process.
