The Ohio University attempts to obtain all Botswana Government publications and other Botswana material as well, especially for materials not readily available elsewhere. The Depository provides assistance in locating materials not within its local collections. Any Botswana materials within the Ohio University Libraries' collections can be obtained via the InterLibrary Loan through one's local library. Most Botswana materials have been cataloged and consulting ALICE, the Libraries' on-line catalog (telenet and web access) is a good place to start. Within staff expertise and time contraints, reference service in regards to Botswana topics are also offered.
