The BurroMobile: What Does A Donkey Have In Common With A Library?

As National Library Week draws to a close hopefully book loving people have found a moment to enjoy the library, thank a librarian, and borrow some materials. But just before we put these thoughts away spare a thought for a world where the library comes to you on a donkey.

Yes, donkey!!

Those of us who live in or near cities and are in more westernized worlds have little to no awareness of how it is for others worlds away.

So, in conclusion of this week take a moment and discover the Bibliburros, the donkey library of Columbia in this great little video from the BBC.

Or this older video.

Enjoy!!
