THREE YEARS MONITORING AFTER THE DONATION OF THE LIBRARY AND THE TEACHER TRAINING TO BE COMPLETED

Reading Corner is a bookshelf that sits in the corner of a small primary school. This library solution is perfect for schools that lack a room that can be dedicated to a Reading Room. Globes and educational toys are also donated. Each library we donate has a wide range of local language children's books including history, science, short stories, fairy tales, books for very young readers, children's dictionaries, children's reference books, an assortment of comic books and a full set of children's encyclopedias.

The simple fact is this: teachers are the single factor that determines if a library will be used when our team leaves. Teachers matter. For this reason, we have developed a teacher training program that on “day one” provides teachers the tools necessary to manage their library effectively. This translates into libraries that get used regularly.
