In 2012, @ShiroKoinange and @SisterKilljoy walked into McMillan Memorial Library and found Nairobi’s oldest library in a state of disrepair.
In 2017, Book Bunk was founded, and began working to restore the city’s historic public libraries into vibrant, inclusive spaces.

A look back at the WRI Ross Center #PrizeforCities awards ceremony, where we were recognised as a Cycle 5 finalist for our work restoring Nairobi’s public libraries.
It was an honour to share our work alongside projects transforming cities around the world.

WHO CAN REGISTER COPYRIGHT ON THE NATIONAL RIGHTS REGISTRY (nrr.copyright.go.ke)
Anybody who owns copyright or has participated in production of a copyright work such as authors, composers, producers, performers or anyone to whom rights have been assigned or licensed by the original owner.
WHAT IS THE VALUE OF REGISTRATION OF COPYRIGHT?
· Acts as a public record of authors/owners.
· The certificate of registration acts as evidence of ownership of copyright in a court of law in case of a dispute pushing burden of proof to the other side.
· The certificate of registration may be used as collateral in a bank or any other lending institution in case one wants to borrow funds.
· It makes it easy to commercialize copyright i.e. in case of licensing or assignment.
· It makes it easy for IP auditors and or valuers to identify the different IP rights owned by a corporate.
