Librarians Without Borders (LWB) was founded by Melanie Sellar and Jorge Chimbinda at the University of Western Ontario's library school in London, Ontario in February 2005. The organization was founded with the mission to "strive to improve access to information resources regardless of language, geography, or religion through the formation of partnerships with community organizations in developing regions."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://lwb-online.org/?page_id=324 )〕 The first project undertaken by LWB was in Huambo, Angola with the goal of building a sustainable library to house desperately needed nursing and medical information resources, among other resources to be added later.〔Baird, Jansen & Liegbregts 2007, p.68-69.〕
