DONATE TO EIFL
Seasons greetings from the EIFL team! In this issue, we invite public libraries to apply for the new EIFL Public Library Innovation Award. We are delighted to announce two new agreements with publishers for resources that will benefit thousands of scholars in our partner countries. A big thank you to everyone who has already donated to our fundraising campaign to help children in Ghana pass their exams. We’ve extended the campaign to the end of the year - so there’s still time to give! View all of our events.
