Libraries ; lb Primary Texts ; q61 Secondary Texts ; q62 Teaching Materials ; le This is the website of the National English Literary Museum (NELM) of South Africa. "The mission of the museum is to promote the reading and appreciation of all forms of imaginative South African literature in English. Its principal functions are to collect and conserve material evidence pertaining to this literature, to publicise and popularise it, and to provide all sections of the reading public, both locally and abroad, with the means of access to it.The Museum started in 1972 as a collection of documents and has grown, over the years, into a national resource funded principally by the Central Government."The NELM website provides links to lists of the collections housed in the museum, research topics and bibliographies, as well as outreach programmes and teaching aids, such the NELM backpack series. NELM backpacks comprise copies of collated biographical material and secondary sources on individual Southern African authors including J.M. Coetzee, Athol Fugard, Tsitsi Dangarembga, Achmat Dangor and Nadine Gordimer,
