Subject: [Wikimedia-IN-PUN] 14 books re-released under CC license during Odisha Day 2014
Dear Wikimedians,

CIS-A2K is glad to share with you the news about the re-release of the
below listed 14 books (13 Odia and 1 English) under CC-BY-SA 3.0 license
during the Odisha Day 2014 [1] celebration in Bhubaneswar. This has been
done in collaboration with the Odia Wikipedia community, Manik Biswanath
Smrutinyasa and Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS). As some of
you may know KISS is one our institutional partners.

1) 11 Odia books by noted writer and academic Dr. Jagannath Mohanty (we
partnered Manik Biswanath Smrutinyasa Trust, founded by Dr. Mohanty for
the re-release)
2) 2 scholarly books on Odia language by Odia language scholar Subrat
Prusty from Institute of Odia Studies and Research.
3) Classical Odia (in English) co-authored by noted linguist Padmashree
Debiprasanna Pattanayak and Subrat Prusty.

We have also managed to get significant media coverage for this event,
which has got 14 print and web media mentions. [2] We will continue to
bring much more Odia content under free license as per our next year's
Odia Wikipedia work plan [3] and will try to use it to make the Odia
Wikisource live [4].
