We are back at ILRI (the International Livestock Research Institute) this morning to meet with Azeba the librarian here. She manages the small library that serves a pretty diverse clientele. Not only the Institute staff but about 2500 local ag students and researchers use the facilities. They take advantage of the online collections, particularly the online journals and the internet connection here at the institute.
This is really the only place I've had real broadband access since we've arrived.
Azeba is also arranging our library visits to the other libraries in Addis on Monday and Tuesday. We hope to go to the UN Economic Commission for Africa, Food and Agriculture Organization, and Addis Ababa University where the library school is located. They should be interesting visits.
