Dear lis-link members:
Please consider sending holiday cards to an independent librarian in Cuba.
They are enduring persecution because of their refusal to accept the
censorship imposed on state-funded librarians in their country. For full
details, refer to IFLA's report (www.faife.dk) in the "news and events"
section.
Please send cards to:
Magdelivia Hidalgo
Ramon Mendoza #20
Reparto La Victoria
Las Tunas
CUBA
Ms. Hidalgo was formerly an accountant in the sugar industry before becoming
an independent librarian. She gave shelter in her home to the family of
Berta Mexidor and Ramon Colas after they were evicted from their apartment
because of their leadership of the library project.
Thank you,
Robert Kent
Friends of Cuban Libraries
