The World e-Books Library, WEL, leading public on-line library with over a million titles and documents in stock, has signed up Zinox Computers, manufacturers of Nigeria's First Internationally Certified Branded Computers, as an exclusive partner in West Africa, in a strategic alliance to introduce a new technically cutting edge e-knowledge product in Nigeria. This product is a very powerful web based e-knowledge tool that would differentiate the Zinox brand and accelerate customer satisfaction by innovatively empowering users of Zinox Computers with the world's largest e-library service, with over 1,000,000 e-books.

This learning-development tool offers students, teachers, and parents e-resources that match their specific learning styles leading to improved academic performance. It is interactive and even offers tutoring support online in all disciplines. This digital content is aimed at making West Africa a 100% e-literate and digital society by 2020 while strengthening Zinox as the destination ICT partner of all corporate and education authorities in the sub region.

Mr. Walter Kny, Global Chief Marketing Officer, The World e-Books Library Limited, made these assertions recently while signing the MOU with Zinox Technologies Limited in Europe. He said that WEL decided to partner with Zinox because of the antecedents, reputation, and the impeccable pedigree of the owners of Zinox. Mr. Kny said that he was particularly impressed that an African company based in Nigeria was tirelessly promoting the vision of knowledge democracy. He praised the resilience with which the Zinox Group has sustained the drive for IT penetration in West Africa.

Signing on behalf of Zinox, Leo Stan Ekeh, Chairman, said that the digital knowledge content that would be integrated into Zinox Computers, in actualizing this partnership, is a breakthrough for two main reasons. Firstly, it justifies the Zinox vision for a technology to enable people to learn anytime, anywhere; to empower the educational sector to produce world-class graduates that would lead Nigeria to her rightful place as the giant of Africa. Zinox has selflessly contributed to IT penetration in the education sector through discounted computer ownership projects and subsidized training schemes; in addition to the donation of digital laboratories and digital centers.

Secondly, the partnership with the World e-Books Library, which guarantees that every Zinox system comes standard with over 1,000,000 e - books and over 23,000 Audio books, answers the yearnings of many computer users in Nigeria for a comprehensive information resource to aid both practical and theoretical on-line learning. The Zinox Chairman lauded the WEL partnership as a source of affordable education with the potential to save costs of both formal and informal education. It would greatly reduce the effect of the lack of textbooks in the West African sub region and eliminate the issuance and purchase of too many handouts in our schools as the best books in the world are hosted online.

Zinox Technologies Limited, manufacturers of Nigeria's First Internationally Certified Branded Computers, was launched on October 9, 2001. The Zinox group has been in the fore front of the promotion of knowledge Democracy as the only way Nigeria can become a knowledge driven society. The company obtained the NIS ISO 9001 - 2000 Quality Certification in 2006 and has continued to partner with globally leading institutions that add content value to her products in order to remain relevant as the digital face of Africa.
