About PCVs: How to Find What You Need
Peace Corps Volunteers in the field need relevant information for their projects and often have a difficult time finding what they need. The purpose of this blog is to use my experience working in a Peace Corps Information and Resource Center, my experience as a Peace Corps Volunteer and my library/computer skills to help Volunteers in the field find information that they need to do their work. I will draw on the experiences and writings of former Peace Corps Volunteers to facilitate the flow of information. PCVs – let me hear from you. — Susan Donald (Honduras 85-87)
