Community owned networks - connectivity solution for AfricaDavid Johnson
Cellular connectivity has provided impressive Internet growth in Africa over the past decade, but according to the ITU, in 2017, Africa only had 20% of the population using the Internet; a laggard compared to 40% in Asia & the Pacific and the 50% world average.

71. 1996 Benton Foundation report:
“Buildings, books, and bytes”
"If you plopped a library down. . .30 years from
now. . .there would be cobwebs growing
everywhere because people would look at it and
wouldn't think of it as a legitimate institution
because it would be so far behind. . ."
-- Experienced library user.
72. How Technology Changes the Role of Libraries
• Makes it possible for organizations like
libraries to become “nodes” in people’s
networks that can help them solve problems
and make decisions
• Allows for immediate, spontaneous creation of
networks that can include libraries
• Gives people a sense that there are more
“friends” in their networks like librarians that
they can access when they have needs
73. No longer think like this…
Your
institution
Patron Patron Patron
76. Tips on becoming a node in a social network
• Think like a friend, not an institution
• Play to your strengths by being an expert, a filter,
a recommender (linker), and a facilitator
• Be aware that your audience is bigger than the
available evidence provides – lurkers and future
arrivals are part of the mix
• Remember that your information can (will, should)
have an organic life beyond your presentation of it
• Look for opportunities to build communities with
your material
77. More tips on becoming a node in a social network
• Participate in the Web 2.0 world
• Embrace the move towards mobility, constant
connectivity, perpetual contact
– This changes the realities of time and space
and presence

• Act on/respond to that feedback
• Provide opportunities for interaction with and
customization of material
• Facilitate information sharing

picked up by a major organization, or create/mobilize
a community or following
82. Finally….

The internet, mobile technology and social media grant access
to populations that have been traditionally hard to reach:
