We have used Maktaba.org for years to supplement content in our physical library in Arusha. Additionally, we encourage our students to discuss books and proverbs. We look forward to all the site's new features!

Anonymous New Mother
While I was pregnant I found books in Swahili that described what the process of birth would be like. While having my baby I began experiencing an unnatural amount of bleeding. The doctor told me the situation was normal, but I knew better from books on Maktaba...and asked for a second opinion. My new doctor treated me immediately and I am extremely grateful for the availability of your free books.

Before setting up a chicken farm, I found content that was in Swahili that allowed me to gain insights that I could not find anywhere else on the web.

A barcode scanning system

ElimuYetu had thousands of physical books that needed to be better organized. Using Maktaba.org, we found volunteers to come visit, build custom barcode scanning software and help with a total redesign of our library.
