Jen Lazuta, a Peace Corps volunteer in a village just outside of Ouahigouya, in the north of the country, is working hard to get a library started in the village. She sounds like she has really been doing some "deep immersion" in the village, really getting to know people.... it is a nice feeling after a long time in a place to feel like you know it and the people there (and she's a marathon runner apparently... in the Sahel?!?!).
Anyway, we wish Jen much success, and FAVL will be doing what it can to make sure the library gets off the ground and, more importantly, continues serving as a place for reading and cultural activities, for years to come.
