  • Purpose:

    The Cooperative Africana Microform Project (CAMP), founded in 1963, is a joint effort by research libraries throughout the world and the Center for Research Libraries (CRL) to promote the preservation of publications and archives concerning the nearly fifty nations of Sub-Saharan Africa and to make these materials in microform available to researchers. In cooperation with the Title VI National Resource Centers for African Studies, CAMP has embarked on an initiative to work together with institutions in Francophone West Africa to preserve materials on microfilm for historians in Africa and North America.
