The SABC Information Library run a successful campaign for Mandela Day, doing 67 minutes at Soweto Letsibogo High School.
The photos of the day can be found here: SABC Information Library Sock Drive 2017
SOCK DRIVE REPORT
BRIEF
– Vision
Katleho Foundation is a non-profit making organisation formed in 2016 with the goal of providing disadvantaged youth and children with sustainable social and economic empowerment initiatives. Last year they celebrated Mandela day at Tshepisong in Roodepoort. A great number was donated; school shoes, food, sanitary pads, etc. on the day from different companies and media was also there to cover the initiative.
To commemorate Mandela day this year, Vision Katleho organised another event in Soweto Letsibogo High School. SABC Information Library received an invitation to donate anything to the school on the day. Socks and books were to be donated. The Information Library also wanted to celebrate 67 minutes for Mandela Day. While the Information Library was brainstorming on a few ideas, they received an invitation to be part of the initiative.
IMPLEMENTATION
To celebrate 67 minutes for Mandela, Information Library decided to run a Sock Drive Campaign which were a huge success!. SABC staff was asked to donate new and old socks with no holes. Some of the Media Library staff contributed money towards the socks. Socks were bought with all the money that was contributed. All the donated socks were donated to the school. Communication about the drive was sent via corporate communication mail to all the staff. The socks were placed in branded boxes throughout the SABC in Auckland Park.
OUTCOME
Approximately 300 Socks were donated in 2 Weeks. SABC Foundation came on board and 500 books were donated to the school. The principal together with the learners were happy to receive the books. The principal informed the Information Library team that the books will be kept safe in the school’s library and the socks will be given to Grade 8 learners. The event and the handover went very well.

How to spot fake news - Infographic by IFLA
The International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) has compiled the "How to spot fake news"- infographic based on FactCheck.org’s 2016 article How to Spot Fake News.
As librarians, information professionals and archivists we need to be vigilant with regards media literacy and critical thinking. Especially when working in the broadcasting industry where the facts should be reliable.
IFLA encourages downloading, printing, sharing and crowdsourcing this Infographic.
The more we crowdsource our wisdom, the wiser the world becomes.
