Abstract:The Emporia-Nigeria ICT project is an educational partnership between Emporia State University's School of Library and Information Management (Emporia, Kansas) and three peer institutions in Nigeria. The objectives of the project include the establishment of communication and information infrastructures for learning, teaching and research, and the provision of opportunities for the Nigerian teaching staff to expand their knowledge and skills in community analysis, information and computer literacy and global studies. The project took off in July 2001. This article discusses how the ICT laboratory in the Department of Library and Information Science of Ahmadu Bello University was set up, how it is being managed, and its benefits to the students and staff in the acquisition of ICT skills.
