Chalula Library
Imagine the joy of being a kid living in a rural village and having a library stocked with wonderful books in English and Kiswahili at your disposal…
Chalula Library was built by Bruce and Rosemary Harris of the US through Friends of African Village Libraries. It is located in the village of Mvumi which is about a half hours drive from Dodoma.
