Another important milestone for RBSI as its membership touches 20,000 today!

It is an interesting coincidence to note that we touched 10,000 almost the same time last year.

Thank you all for your continued interest and enriching participation.

And it is indeed gratifying to discover that there are so many people who are interested in rare books, history and art of India.

Wow! From strength to strength!

10,000 in a year - hardly seems possible. We'll need a big hall if we decide to have a get-together ..... Congratulations!

Congratulations! Keep up the good work! If possible could you provide some stats as to how many books had been published or available in English, Hindi, Tamil and such languages, say between 1800-1900 or between 1900-1950. I realize it may be difficult to come up with some reliable number, but some reasonable guestimate based on some data would be great! Who else to ask?! :) :)
