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.

Party Politics Jeopardised the Credibility of the Women's National
Party politics jeopardised the credibility of the Women’s National Coalition Party politics jeopardised the credibility of the Women’s National Coalition for Afrikaner women in the organisation Loraine Maritz History Department University of Stellenbosch [email protected] Samevatting Die Women’s National Coalition (WNC) is in 1992 amptelik gestig en was ‘n inisiatief van die African National Congress Women’s League. Die doelwitte van die WNC was om inligting oor vroue se behoeftes en aspirasies in te samel en dit in ‘n Vrouehandves saam te vat wat uiteindelik ‘n integrale deel van die nuwe Grondwet van Suid-Afrika sou word. Vanweë talle praktiese probleme, asook haar gebrek aan politieke vernuf, het die Afrikanervrou moeilik by die WNC aangepas. Daarby het die vyandigheid van swart vroue wat die vergaderings van die WNC domineer het, verder die Afrikanervrou se betrokkenheid in die wiele gery. In hierdie artikel val die soeklig op hoe die politieke gebeure tydens die onderhandelings vir ’n nuwe demokratiese bestel die WNC en Afrikanervroue beïnvloed het. Keywords: Women’s National Coalition; Afrikaner women; Afrikaner Women’s organisations; Women’s Charter; Political smokescreen; ANCWL. Introduction When public negotiations for a new democratic dispensation in South Africa started in 1990, a new era began in which numerous human rights issues came to the fore. Women also used this opportunity to put women’s issues and gender relations on the national agenda in an attempt to redress the injustices of the past. Black women’s political consciousness developed over many decades. But in the 1980s during the state of emergency and increased political action, they became aware of their suppression as women and realised that the liberation • 99 New Contree, No.
