ABSTRACT

SUMMARY. This article discusses the author's experiences in helping to develop and revitalize the law school and law library collections in the East African nation of Eritrea. This project was part of a rebuilding effort following a thirty year struggle for independence from Ethiopia in which much of Eritrea's infrastructure and public institutions were destroyed. Among the pressing issues presented to the author were funding, collection development, space-planning, staffing and services needs.
