We Need Legal Backing Compelling Estate Owners For Building Of Libraries - Nigerian Librarians

The Registrar and Chief Executive Officer of Librarians’ Registration Council of Nigeria (LRCN), Prof. Michael Afolabi, on Friday, disclosed that the council is proposing a law through the National Assembly that would mandate all Housing Estate owners with over 500 tenants to establish a library.
Besides, Afolabi said the Council is advocating for the establishment of libraries and information centres in all the 774 Local government areas in the country, and that it would engage relevant stakeholders to achieve its aims.
Afolabi spoke in Abeokuta at the opening of a five-day LRCN’s workshop on “Entrepreneurship in Librarianship in Nigeria.”
