Special Librarian's Dedication to African ChildrenBy Ann Sweeney and Nancy Minter*
Special Librarian Jane Kinney Meyers sees it clearly: a network of small, open-access libraries across sub-Saharan Africa providing basic education and literacy skills to as many of the 43 million orphaned and street children as possible. And so her Lubuto Library Project was incorporated as a non-profit in January 2005 (www.lubuto.org). The first Lubuto Library is slated for completion in November 2006 in Lusaka, Zambia, with two more to follow shortly.
