The official mission of LWB:
Librarians Without Borders (LWB) is a non-profit organization that strives to improve access to information resources regardless of language, geography, or religion, by forming partnerships with community organizations in developing regions.
It was forged by Melanie Sellar who was inspired by her colleague Jorge Chimbinda to resolve international deficits in library resources. Sellar was a Master of Library and Information Science student at the University of Western Ontario, while Chimbinda was an anthropology graduate student. Source at Western News.
