About Library For All

Mission Statement
Library For All is committed to unlocking knowledge and opportunities for those in developing countries with limited access to educational materials.
Description
We are taking on this mission with our cloud-based library of ebooks. In areas where books are scarce but the mobile networks are growing, our digital platform provides access to critical educational materials. It is optimized for low-broadband environments, easy to use, and will ultimately be device agnostic - and is significantly more cost effective and sustainable than building and maintaining physical libraries. Our content is curated for each site with partners on the ground to meet their specific, educational and cultural needs in the local languages. We have programs in Haiti and the Democratic Republic of Congo and have plans to expand into Rwanda in the near term. We will continue to expand across the globe to address this critical need.
