Abstract
From May 25-June 4,2004, the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress led “South Africa: A Journey to Promote Reading & Literacy”, a trip that focused on reading and literacy promotion efforts currently underway in schools, libraries, and educational institutions throughout South Africa. The visit took place during the 10th anniversary year of the new South African democracy - and the link between democracy and reading was a theme for the journey and many of the presentations and discussions. Participants learned about the “new” South Africa directly from their South African counterparts, sharing ideas and experiences with people who also believe in the power of books, reading, literacy, and libraries.
