>
>this directory of well over 400 links and Internet resources has been
>designed especially for use by the book professions in Africa and by
>African writers and scholars, particularly those who may be new to the
>Web. However, we hope Africana librarians, and cyberhounds outside Africa, will
>also find it helpful and informative.
>
>THE ELECTRONIC AFRICAN BOOK WORM WEB NAVIGATOR is a quick-access guide and
>pick-list to some of the best sites on Africa, African studies, and African
>publishing and the book trade. It also provides links - many with short
>descriptions - to the home pages of African and Africanist journals, African
>newspapers, to Web sites of libraries in Africa and to some of the major
>Africana libraries in the countries of the North, as well as links to the major
>publishers (outside Africa) with African studies lists. Additional links cover
>resources for writers, African literary and cultural journals, and a number of
>African literature sites. Moreover, there is also a section on electronic
>networks for development, and Web sites featuring discussions and resource
>material on Internet infrastructure and connectivity in Africa.
>
>In addition to Africa- and African studies-related Internet sites it also
>offers links to Web sites (not Africa-specific) relating to book and
>journal publishing and the retail book trade, book trade organizations,
>publishing services, libraries and library associations, as well as a
>number of other organizations, networks, NGOs, and donor agencies. There
>are also links to some of the best general reference and Internet
>directories, and to some of the major Internet tools and search engines.
>
>A hardcopy version of the ELECTRONIC AFRICAN BOOKWORM is available to the
>African book communities free of charge through the Bellagio Publishing

>The Hans Zell Website, and its extensive links pages, will be regularly
