THE WIDERNET PROJECT

Launched in 2000, the WiderNet Project, a service program based at the
University of Iowa School of Library and Information Science, is improving
digital communications in developing countries.

The project trains computer technicians and coaches decision-makers at
universities in the developing world, providing on-site hands-on training,
cutting-edge research on information technology issues facing the
developing world, and donating new and refurbished computer equipment to
partner universities. Over 3,600 technicians, decision makers, and
librarians have been through our training programs across Africa.

The WiderNet Project also provides millions of digital educational
resources to those without adequate Internet connectivity via the
innovative eGranary Digital Library.
