Anne Simpson with children from the Goi Library.

"Some of the children worked together with me on a 'poetry tree' - each of them made 'leaves' or poems to put on the tree. By the end of twelve days in Goi, the poetry tree was quite large, with an abundance of leaves."
Anne Simpson

Volunteer 

Nelly Amenyogbe from Vancouver volunteered in Goi and organized an Olympic event (she is also an athlete!).

OCLF welcomes volunteers to our libraries, both in and outside of Accra.  They bring their own skills and enrich library programs. Our libraries are busy places with activities besides reading. Experience with children is an asset and it is helpful to come with ideas – crafts, music or sports – to share with library members. Knowledge of teaching adults how to read is useful.
