Nicaragua Introduction
The connection between Simmons and Nicaragua began last summer when a small group of students and Assistant Dean Denise Davis traveled to the country to volunteer at a small library in San Juan del Sur, a small town on the strip of land bordered by the ocean, Lake Nicaragua, and the Costa Rican border. This year three of us are continuing the tradition: Denise, myself, and Victoria Walsh. Victoria and I are students at GSLIS, and also work for the school in various capacities. Over the next few weeks we will be posting our impressions as we explore the country and its libraries.
Comments
Dear Denise and Victoria:
Thank you for what they are making with the libraries of Nicaragua, for our children, youths and adults. I know that there is not more brilliant light in this world that the one that illuminates the human knowledge through books and libraries. It is a very important work the work of love the one that developing in my country. I am a Nicaraguan librarian that wants to begin professional friendship with you. Grateful deeply,
Mario Arce
