    Sri Lankan Journal of Librarianship and Information Management. Vol 5(2). December 2013 BEYOND THE WALLS: OUTREACH INITIATIVES IN LIBRARY, UNIVERSITY OF MORATUWA Ruvini C. Kodikara Library, University of Moratuwa [email protected] Thushari M. Seneviratne * Library, University of Moratuwa [email protected] C.N.D. Punchihewa Library, University of Moratuwa [email protected] Abstract Outreach librarianship – a concept which had a history of more than 40 years - has been diversely used in libraries all over the world as well as in Sri Lanka. Outreach Librarianship is aimed to reach out to traditional and non-traditional library users, extending beyond the walls of a physical library to serve underprivileged communities. Establishment of Outreach Services Division in Library, University of Moratuwa has fulfilled a long- felt need to serve the community living in the vicinity of University of Moratuwa. “Child Development Programme” at Sumudu Preschool located in the University premises and “Reading Camp” at Bodhiraja Vidyalaya, Katubedda, Moratuwa are two outreach initiatives that the staff of Library, University of Moratuwa are currently engaged in. This paper describes the accomplishment of these two outreach initiatives through management of physical and human resources without an outreach budget. Keywords: Academic Libraries, Outreach Librarianship, Libraries and Community, Library Staff 10 Sri Lankan Journal of Librarianship and Information Management. Vol 5(2). December 2013 Introduction Outreach can be described as the process of engagement with the individuals and organizations by entities or individuals.

  • ICRC Sri Lanka COVID-19 Response: 2020
    ANNUAL ROUND-UP 2020 ICRC SRI LANKA COVID-19 RESPONSE MESSAGE FROM THE REGIONAL DIRECTOR In a year marked by the COVID-19 pandemic and its dire consequences for health care, economies and the well-being of populations around the world, I would like to share with you the contribution that the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) teams made in several critically affected countries in Asia and the Pacific during 2020. The efforts were aimed at supporting communities and the authorities in trying to prevent, control and manage the effects of COVID-19 on the most vulnerable. Though we have stepped into 2021, the pandemic is far from over. With the second and third waves striking many nations across the world, countries continue to rely on restrictive measures and lockdowns to mitigate the effects of the pandemic. As I write this, more than two million people have lost their lives to COVID-19 worldwide and the confirmed cases have surpassed 97 million. Of these, 14.5 million confirmed cases and more than 228,000 deaths have been reported from Asia and the Pacific. At the same time, there is a glimmer of hope in the vaccination campaigns that have unrolled in many countries. We are advocating to ensure that people affected by conflict and violence, who might otherwise be forced to the back of the queue, have an equitable access to the vaccine. Similarly, other marginalized communities like the internally displaced people, migrants, asylum seekers and detainees must be taken along in this journey towards immunization. The ICRC, together with our National Red Cross and Red Crescent Society partners, is ready to support national vaccination campaigns and facilitate access to the COVID-19 vaccine for those in difficult-to-reach vulnerable and marginalised populations in countries affected by armed conflict and violence.
