Finding stuff on our site

ByNetwork Learning

We appreciate it’s not always easy to find everything on our site so here’s a quick guidance:

  • All our manuals (Word and PDF documents) can be found in the Library.

library-iconTip: to find a particular title, instead of scrolling through the whole list you can use the ‘Library Themes’ menu which appears at the left of the library page.

  • All our other resources (articles and links to information) are categorized into NGO Fields and NGO Skills.

resources-icon To locate all the info on a specific keyword, it’s quickest to use the searchbox (located at the right on every page).

Difficulty downloading from the Library?

Depending on your own browser settings, when you click on ‘Download’ the document may open in your browser window instead of being downloaded to your hard disc. If this happens, you can save the PDF to a location of your choice via the browser menu (File > Save As)

Does this solve your problems? If not, please contact us.

  • Books go into the field

    ByNetwork Learning

    We recently offered some printed materials to our registered users (the OXFAM Gender Training manual, Stepping Stones training package on HIV/AIDS, and a set of French flannelgraphs for health education). The three NGOs who received them were: CISS in Kisumu, Kenya, an NGO that works with communities, increasing their participation in the democratic process, in community-managed development etc. People in Need , An NGO in Trincomalee, Sri Lanka funded by the Czech Republic, working to rebuild physical and social structures after the Tsunami. The Pemba Island Relief Organisation (PIRO) Tanzania which has a small resource centre for local NGOs and supports CBOs working to strengthen Sexual Reproductive Health Information & Services. Does your own NGO have materials that you really do not use? You could circulate a list to the members of NGO groups to which you belong, offering a loan or a swop. Unused Manuals and other materials are wasted resources.
