This is a repository of open-licensed images derived from the stories in the Pratham Books collection.
The image bank was created as a side effect of generating the stories for the Global Pratham Books Project.
Since the original images are relatively large, they have been made available in this repository in two different sizes for convenient re-use in other applications. The original size images are in the large folder. The images in the medium folder are approximately half the size of the corresponding images in the large folder.
Complete metadata for all images can be found in the files located in the metadata folder. Full image attribution, including the illustrator, license, source story, and a description of each image are included. To see the images in their original context, click on the link provided in each file to the corresponding source story on the StoryWeaver website, where you can read or download the story as a pdf or epub file.
There are 3900+ open-licensed images in this repo, extracted from the 422 core stories that make up the Global PB corpus.
All images in this repository have been released under a Creative Commons license (CC BY 4.0), with the exception of about 40 or so images which are Public Domain. The license for each image can be found in the appropriate file in the metadata folder.
