Orikinla:

Great proactive initiative. I have the first Nigerian online news and history library on www.nigeriansreport.com. You should submit your project to the Knight News Challenge fund for digital media projects. If you can prove that it is going to be of immense benefit to Nigerians you can get funding to run it well.

Thanks for the comemnts,and the info about the Knight News Challenge. They are currently closed, but will check them back later in the year.

If YU is not the only UNiversity that this conference will be exhibited, could you please list the future locations and their date?

If it is, it would be mightily generous of you to outline what the conference discussed and what their next objective will be.

Even though some of us cannot make it (disappointing) to the conference, it'd be wise to disclose some information on NL. You never know who is viewing.

Anywaz, since you're also involved with this activity, you could try to be active and shed some info.

I know a lot of African organizations (and non-Africans) who are involved with the collection process of sending textbooks to Africa. They might find this Digital library interesting.
