Paper long abstract:
The Kitengesa Community Library began in 1999 as a box containing some 200 books. Now it is a building, lit by solar electricity, that houses well over 2000 books; it also functions as a community centre and as a focus for several research studies and development projects. This paper will describe the library's growth and will analyze the reasons for its success.
