Notes

Discusses the impact that literacy, education, and access to information have on the lives of people in developing countries. Access to books is often extremely limited outside of schools and illiteracy rates are high. Profiles a library in a remote village along the Amazon in Peru, an association of libraries that serves rural parts of Peru, and libraries in Kenya that use carts pulled by donkeys and camel caravans as bookmobiles to reach people in remote locations.
