We work with national library services, higher education institutions and NGOs in sub-Saharan Africa providing books, resources and training to support an environment in which reading for pleasure, study and lifelong learning can flourish. Our in-country partners distribute books to libraries, schools, prisons, refugee camps, hospitals, and resource centres. Each book is selected by librarians in our London warehouse based on feedback from partners to ensure books meet local needs. We provide grants to improve libraries, to purchase books in the local languages and to train librarians and teachers to encourage others to read and change their lives through books.
