You've heard about Donkey Libraries, Elephant Libraries and Camel Libraries. Now hear about the Caterpillar Library!
You are invited to join us for this ILIG Informal when Ian Stringer, a past chair of IFLA's Mobile Section who was recently made an Honorary Fellow of CILIP for his services to mobile libraries at home and abroad, will be sharing his experience of the IFLA funded Caterpillar Project in South Africa, Burkino Faso and Ghana.
Caterpillar Book boxes have been designed to transport books to isolated communities in Africa, often providing communities with the only means of accessing books. Ian will speak about the pain and anguish, pleasure and joy in getting books to 200,000 readers in remote African areas.

The access codes for the building are E, G, W, X.
ILIG Informals are not lectures; they are informal, but informative, early evening meetings with a short talk on a theme of international interest plus plenty of time for questions and networking. They are open to all and absolutely free. Light refreshments are served which is why we ask you to let us know you are coming by contacting us by 7th June. We look forward to seeing you.
The International Library and Information Group is a special interest group of CILIP: the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals, registered charity number 313014. http://www.cilip.org.uk/ilig/
