Episode 3: the Athens Comic Library in Greece has a wide collection of comics and provides compassionate, fun programming to locals and refugees. It also organized Greece Refugee Week! Great people, a great library.
Guatemala has no library system, a low literacy rate and geographically remote communities. I interview four library organizations to find out how they're approaching the problem. I speak to William Cartwright, President and CEO of international NGO Rieken Foundation, that builds community libraries in remote communities in Guatemala and Honduras; to Rigoberto Zamora and Myrna Ortiz of Guatemala NGO PROBIGUA that began its work with a bibliobus and now builds libraries and schools; to Cecilia Dougherty, President of PAVA, a Guatemalan NGO that builds vibrant 'communitecas' libraries in extremely remote highland communities; and to Valentina Santa Cruz and Regina De La Vega of the Guatemala Library Association of the problems of organizing and educating libraries across physical and digital divides and their lobbying efforts to get government money into libraries.
