Danjuma Bolaji Nnamdi

Children's librarian in Ikeja

🇳🇬 Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria
Beacon Archive
Since 1981
English, Yoruba

For 45 years I look after the shelves, the card catalog and the regulars at Beacon Archive. I answer every email, even at midnight. A library should feel like a living room. It has been a good run and I'm grateful for all of it.
