All of us when we go to Africa acquire, sometimes systematically, more often haphazardly, mimeographed and printed documents which we store, often unused, hopefully to be used in the future. Scattered issues of journals, when added together, can make nearly complete collections.
* The Africana Newsletter plans to publish regularly surveys of ephemeral material (party pamphlets, rare newspapers, constitutions, reports of congresses, trade-union literature, hard-to-find government documents). After lists have been compiled and collated, microfilms will be made and deposited in the Mid-West Microfilm Center, Chicago, Illinois, for borrowing by subscribers to a fund for filming rare African materials. The Editors would like to receive any additions to this list of Cameroun materials or surveys of other countries or collections. We are not concerned at this time with form of entries; we only want to learn what is available.
