[afro-nets] BMA/BMJ Information Fund

["Vern Weitzel" <vern@coombs.anu.edu.au>]

The BMA International Department runs the BMA/BMJ Information Fund which considers requests for health information from organisations in developing countries and other areas of need. The fund does not grant money but makes donations of educational materials, such as books, CD-ROMs and videos. We are limited by a budget of £30,000 but we are inviting applications from medical schools, medical libraries, health care institutions, health NGOs and similar organisations. Please note that we are unable to consider requests from individuals.

The BMA is now working with two suppliers to donate the books ? Teaching Aids at Low Cost (TALC) and Blackwell. If you would like your organization to be considered for a donation from the Fund, please complete in full the application form which can be downloaded from the BMA's website. Please select the items you require from one or both of the booklists (also available from the BMA website). You can find all of the relevant documents here:

Completed application forms and booklists should then be sent to the BMA by e-mail to internationalinfo@bma.org.uk, by post to British Medical Association, BMA House, Tavistock Square, London WC1H 9JP, United Kingdom, or by fax on +44 (0) 207 383 6644.

The closing date for this year's round of applications is 28 September
2007.
