Dear Sir/Madam

Kindly accept my heartiest greetings for the season.
We have been keeping you informed of our annual events for the last 17
years. This advance information of our activities helps you plan your participation
in the programmes of your choice well in advance.
Development of a reference library and a small museum is an ongoing
activity since the inception of our Institute in 1984. We have about 20,000 volumes
on Indian Culture, most of which are now rare. The library is computerized. We
expect to add about 2,000 more volumes this year.

Our activities are divided into three parts :

• Every month there would be two lectures on the first and third Sundays.
  
• One exhibition each on rare books and manuscripts in the month of
  April and October.
  
• The annual seminar on Saturday 27th December 2003

You can also visit our web site http://www.orientalthane.com and sign
our guest book. If you need any more information please write to us or e-mail us
without any hesitation.

Thanking you and with warm regards.
Yours Sincerely

(Dr. V. V. Bedekar)
