Urgent
FOR THE ERITREAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY
(EIT)
The Association of Eritreans and Their Friends in Michigan(AEFM) has been requested
by the Eritrean Institute of Technology (EIT) to help in the collection of text
and reference books for the institution. AEFM is a
non-profit, non-religious, non-political 501(c)(3) tax-exempt association of
Eritreans and non-Eritreans based in the State of
EIT is a new post-secondary institution, less than two years old, established
by the Ministry of Education of the State of Eritrea. It has close to
10,000 students. No matter what the subject matter and the level of
training are, the focus of the school is hands-on training. To accomplish
this goal, we understand that there is a great need for subject matter books,
both text and reference. The school has sent the list of the
urgently needed books to AEFM. AEFM has categorized the list of books by
subject matter and are posted on the AEFM Website (www.eritrean-aefm.org/actvities/books/EIT_books/eit_books.htm);
in addition, to the extent that they are available, the list also shows on the
Web the title, author, publisher, and
edition and/or date of publication.
AEFM is asking everyone for
the urgent and vigorous participation in the collection of these books.
There are a number of ways people can participate: (a) Selecting
individual titles and sending as many copies as possible, (b) organizing book
collection/purchasing parties or house meetings, (c) sending money so that AEFM
can bulk purchase books at discount prices, and (d) contacting institutions,
libraries, schools, and individuals to help with this effort.
