    Access to published literature on cancer in Africa is problematic – especially locally produced cancer research information. A digital health library, such as the one being implemented in five African countries provides a solution. A new innovation, the African Digital Health Library draws support from local stakeholders, enlisting the best ideas from both the library and information technology fields. Although this work seems like new territory, it essentially remains a librarian’s workspace, supported by local collaborators and with new ideas to enable efficient access to cancer research information.
