Why this blog

This blog reflects the cooperation between the Swedish School of Library and Information Science (SSLIS) at the University of Borås (UB), the library at the Blekinge Institute of Technology (BTH), and the library of the University of Rwanda within the framework of the Sida Research Training Partnership Programme Sweden-Rwanda: UR-Sweden Programme for Research, Higher Education and Institutional Advancement. Our sub programme is simply called "the Library sub programme".

Our aim is for the library sub programme to be transparent and shared by all UR librarians. The focus here is on capacity building with and for the libraries. But our intention is also to give information about the overall programme and its activities, especially those with impact on the UR and our sub progamme.
