Happy New Year to All!
Following a successful pilot testing phase, AfLIA wishes to announce that
registration has opened for applicants to enroll in the Wikipedia in
African Libraries (#WikiAfLibs) Course - Cohort 1.
AfLIA therefore, invites all African library educators and librarians in
all library types and from every country on the continent to apply and be
part of the online learning program, fully funded by the Wikimedia
Foundation
Among others, the Course will teach African librarians how they can better
assist their user communities to use Wikipedia, tell their stories by
themselves on a very visible global platform and also nurture relationships
between Wikipedia communities in Africa with libraries.
For registration details go to:

We are interested in reaching many others from your country, who may
equally be interested in benefiting from this important initiative. We
encourage you to circulate news about the Call among your colleagues,
friends, supervisors, instructors, students etc. in the library and
information sector.
For enquiries, feel free to send us a mail at afliacomm(a)aflia.net
Best regards,
