Abstract:

The Michaelis Art Library, part of the Reference Division of the Johannesburg Public Library Service, originated with a collection of books purchased for the planned Johannesburg Art Gallery in the 1920s. Temporarily and then permanently housed in the Public Library, the collection became the nucleus of a growing art library, the largest public art library in South Africa. In recent years usage of the library declined as a result of political tensions, but then increased in parallel with a surge of vitality in the arts which heralded the end of apartheid and the emergence of democracy.

Abstract:

Teacher migration is a phenomenon that gained international momentum more than eighteen years ago. South Africa was one of the developing countries within the Commonwealth which were greatly affected by the loss of homegrown skills in respect to teacher emigration to the United Kingdom. In the past ten years, however, South Africa has attracted teachers from neighbouring countries. Whilst there have been some studies on migrant teachers in South Africa, research on migrant teachers in primary schools is a neglected area.

Abstract:

The History of the Colony of the Cape of Good Hope by the Hon. Alexander Wilmot and the Hon. John Centilivres Chase was published in Cape Town by J.C. Juta in 1869. In his South African Bibliography (London 1910), Mendelssohn commented that “This was the first regular and consecutive history of the Cape Colony”. He drew attention to George McCall Theal's comment in his History of South Africa, vol. IV (1834-1854) (London 1893) that “It is now out of print and it is rarely met with”. In his own Catalogue of Books and Pamphlets Relating to Africa South of the Zambezi (Cape Town, S.A. [1912]) pub

Abstract:

Artbooks, which are a combined form of picture and story book created using mixed media, can be a simple yet powerful way of supporting children affected by war and displacement to tell their stories. They allow children to work through the creative arts, which protects them from being overwhelmed by difficult memories. They also allow, even very young children, to show us how they cope with past violence and present injustice by recalling and representing the small everyday overcomings of their lives – a garden they planted in DRC, a mother who walks them across a busy Johannesburg street, a
