Wsflibrary.org begun as a facility for East African librarians who wanted to document the World Social Forum in Nairobi, Kenya, January 2007. Learning how to use wikis, and other social networking skills, were/are also part of the project. (See Nairobi WSF 2007 for the outcome.) To our knowledge, librarians did not carry out any corresponding documentation project during the WSF in Belem, Brazil, January-February 2009, (See Belem WSF 2009), but we intend to renew our efforts at the WSF in Dakar, which is scheduled for the begining of 2011. (See Dakar WSF 2011.) Besides, the WSF is not only a series of events, but also a world-wide process which includes many regional national and local custom papers social forums. Our goal is to create a permanent link between the Social Forum and the Library.
The activities of the Nairobi WSF were ordered in 21 classes, which had been identified as the main actionable themes of the WSF by its International Council. An important question is whether to settle for these themes, at least for the time being.
