The Grocotts Mail Citizen Journalism Newsroom was officially launched on 8 September 2009. It is a walk-in community facility where citizens of Grahamstown can produce their own journalistic content (written stories accompanied with photographs, for example), for publication in Grocotts Mail, on Grocotts Mail Online and elsewhere. It is a component of a project named Iindaba Ziyafika ("The news is coming"), which focuses on developing innovative ways of using new media technologies to facilitiate community journalism, and is funded by a grant from the US-based John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.
