Abstract
Traditional mobile library programs have experienced limited success in Africa when compared to other regions of the world. In this article based on an extensive literature review, the author describes the history and problems of mobile library programs on that continent. In the future, their role should include collaboration with other agencies to deliver information to the majority of the population which remains rural and non-literate. The author also suggests that the term “mobile information delivery systems” would be more appropriate than “mobile libraries” in this context.
