Nalayini Kanapathippillai has written articles in the field of feminism, documentation and archives, and Tamil literature. Here are three articles that she wrote during her service at the National Archives of Sri Lanka. She was the only Tamil who worked at the archives at her period. It is known that there worked another Tamil man, Mr Navasothy, at the National Archives before Nalayini. Sadly, he dies before Nalayini started her service at the National Archives in Colombo.

Disclaimer:
Due to the lack of or fragmented archives or limited access to archives in Tamil society, it has been challenging to get access to available sources that can support oral history interviews.
In this situation, writing about diaspora Tamil history will be a dynamic process which may change its shape and be updated over time. Thus, we welcome the public to provide feedback with any verifiable sources in the case of need for correction in the factual information in this website.
