Description

Introduction The Government of Botswana has envisioned an educated and informed nation by 2016 (Government of Botswana, 1997). To meet the needs of this vision, the public library system provides a nation-wide library and information services' network designed to meet the information needs of all sectors of the community. To date, the system boasts of about 66 Village Reading Rooms (VRRs), 24 public libraries and four community libraries. VRRs are community initiatives designed to extend the public library services to smaller settlements in Botswana. Community libraries on the other hand are an outcome of partnership of the communities, Botswana Government and the Robert and Sara Rothschild Family Foundation. However, in spite of these efforts, statistics show that not all the targeted sectors of the communities are properly reached as the main beneficiaries of these initiatives. Improved understanding of the reasons why certain groups in the communities do not use the libraries is needed in order to develop effective strategies to promote the use of the libraries to meet the information needs of the target communities.
