Just got a call from Hesperian Publishers; they are sending 33 copies of their Where there is no doctor series to the community libraries in Ghana. These are quickly becoming the "must-read" books in the communities served by the libraries, so this is fantastic to be able to extend to other local libraries.
Go Hesperian!
