Mobile Libraries Innovation for Ghanian Children
by Nonikiwe - Editor on 29 Jun 2010
The Ghana Library Board (GLB) has introduced a proactive, creative and innovative exercise to run Mobile Library Services at schools in deprived communities. The aim is to send books and information reading materials to the doorstep of pupils and students in communities where there are no libraries. Mr Joseph Boye, Western Regional Librarian said this would enhance their reading and knowledge. He was speaking at an awards ceremony for schools in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis to mark this year’s International Children’s Book Day at the weekend.
The day, which is celebrated annually worldwide to commemorate the birthday of Hans Anderson, a Danish author, was observed under theme; “A Book Is Waiting For You, Find It”.
