Challenge for the Collective: What's Ganymede like?
 
#3
Banzai Institute presence on Ganymede is somewhat limited, since the Institute likes to focus on the relationship between the Fen and the Really, Real World,
but there is a small chapter in Serenity Valley. Like other Banzai Institute centers, it focuses on community, continuing education, and 'Wavium research
(think of it as a local rec center, community college, and think tank). However, with the rather unpleasant news issues surrounding Operation Tango Shoes, the
Institute has created a mandate to stay informed of events happening on the planet. This is mostly done through regular participation in public forums, but
through a regular use of print-on-demand printing and e-book downloads and two 'waved Bookmobiles that run circuits from settlement to settlement,
providing books and literacy training, and serving as eyes and ears on the Ganymede community at large. Post-Great Justice, the Banzai Bookmobile program is
adapted for use for all colonies with an Institute presence, and World Watch 1 (and later World Watch 2) have the ability to produce books via e-book and
print-on-demand.
