[LM_NET] Gen: Reply to setting up a library in Africa

[Jayne Dambman <jdambman@CVAI.ORG>]

This week I had asked if anyone has had experience setting up a  
library in Africa. I will be doing that this summer in Cameroon and I  
am looking for some ideas. I have been to Cameroon and Nigeria a  
number of times and have lived in Nigeria as a teacher in the past.  
Thank you to those of you who said that you had some experience. I  
will  contact you for more information!

A number of you wrote and asked me for more information about the  
project. One was Diane Chen, who is an ALA executive board member and  
has a blog on School Library Journal. She asked me some more  
questions and then put the interview on her blog. So for those of you  
who wanted more info... Here's the site:
