The Grandfather: When I was your age, television was called "books."
A site devoted to thoughts about books, reading, and libraries relevant to Africa mostly by Michael Kevane, co-Director of Friends of African Village Libraries, a small 501(c)(3) non-profit devoted to helping village and small community libraries in Africa. I am also an economist at Santa Clara University. Other frequent contributors are Kate Parry, FAVL-East Africa director, and Anne-Reed Angino, FAVL networker extraordinaire!
