Celebrate South African Library Week
Kwatsaduza - To celebrate South African Library Week the City of Ekurhuleni is inviting all its patrons with overdue library material to return it at no cost.
This will only be valid from March 11 until March 19 at libraries across Ekurhuleni.
“The mantra for Fine Free week is ‘No questions, no fines’, and thus library users are encouraged to return all of the overdue resources they have borrowed, in order to allow others to benefit from them,” says Ekurhuleni spokesperson, Themba Gadebe.
The theme for this year’s Library Week is ‘#libraries4lifelonglearning’.
It frames the substantial contribution of libraries to the efforts that strive to address our country’s educational, social, cultural and recreational needs and prevalent inequalities.
It provides insight into the role of libraries in South Africa by ensuring equitable access to quality information and to social advancement opportunities, which makes libraries essential in realising the vision of an informed nation.
