She said the library will benefit six primary schools and five high schools in the area.
‘The library can accommodate 60 people, and offers resources for pre-school children, all the way through to tertiary students.’
Mavimbela said access to information through libraries is a basic human right protected by our Constitution.
‘Libraries matter, especially now when the country is battling the Covid-19 pandemic that compels us to have limited public gatherings, which affects learning’, said the MEC.
