  • Dosh Receives 2010 IPA FTP Prize at 29Th Istanbul Book Fair
    PRESS RELEASE 3, avenue de Miremont CH – 1206 Geneva Tel: +41 22 704 1820 Fax: +41 22 704 1821 [email protected] Staff of Chechen Human Rights Magazine DOSH Receives 2010 IPA Freedom to Publish Prize at Istanbul Book Fair Against Decision of European Court of Human Rights, Trial of Turkish Publisher of Apollinaire, Recipient of IPA’s 2010 Special Award, Continues Istanbul, Geneva – 2 November 2010 The President of the International Publishers Association (IPA), Herman P. Spruijt, formally awarded, on 2 November 2010, in Istanbul the 2010 IPA Freedom to Publish Prize to Israpil Shovkhalov, Editor-in-Chief, and Viktor Kogan-Yasny, publisher of the Dosh Magazine for their exemplary courage in upholding freedom to publish. Dosh is a Chechen Human Rights magazine. The Award Ceremony took place during the 29th Istanbul Book Fair. A special Award was also given to Turkish publisher Irfan Sanci (Sel Yayıncılık). The very day of his award, an Istanbul court, ignoring a previous decison of the European Court of Human Rights, decided to keep suing him for publishing a translation of Apollinaire. He faces up to 9 years in prison. The next hearing is due on 7 December 2010. The Board of the IPA, meeting in Frankfurt on 6 October 2010, had selected Israpil Shovkhalov, Editor-in-Chief, and Viktor Kogan-Yasny, publisher of the Chechen Human Rights Magazine Dosh, as Prize-winners from among many highly commendable candidates. This year’s Award was formally presented on 2 November 2010 by IPA President Herman P. Spruijt during the 29 th Istanbul Book Fair, in an event marking the end of the international days of the Fair.

  • Margaret T. Hite. Traditional Book Donation to Sub-Saharan Africa: an Inquiry Into Policy, Practice and Appropriate Information Provision
    Margaret T. Hite. Traditional Book Donation to Sub-Saharan Africa: An Inquiry into Policy, Practice and Appropriate Information Provision. A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in L.S degree. April, 2006. 46 pages. Advisor: David Carr Abstract Traditional book donation programs are a favored method for North American clubs, service groups, libraries and individuals to help rural African community and school libraries. This study draws together book gifts and donations literature of North American and African librarians to discover whether traditional book donations from North America to Africa fulfill the needs of recipients of the aid. The theories of sustainable development and appropriate technology are used to examine African information needs and donated books are considered in terms of relevance, condition, language and reading level, and cultural appropriateness. Using this lens it is found that used book donations are not useful and may in fact do damage to libraries and literacy in developing countries. Several practical alternatives are suggested as replacement for traditional book donations.
