"We are students in the UW School of Library and Information Studies (SLIS) 640: Libraries and the Global Knowledge Society, taught by Professor Louise Robbins. Part of our curriculum this semester involved partnering with a library or library program abroad and helping them with a project. Our group partnered with the Evergreen Education Foundation, chaired by Faith Chao. Our project was to film native English speakers reading children's books, and send the videos along with the books for use in English language classrooms in China." -From the introduction.
