THE LIBRARY ADVOCACY WALK (LAW)



THE LIBRARY ADVOCACY WALK (LAW)




Concerned and bothered by not only the Dilapidating state of the rented Sanusi Dantata House but also its gross inadequacy to house Millions of the National Library of Nigeria collections, and the attendant consequences of this development on our security and effective service delivery, THE ACADEMIC STAFF UNION OF RESEARCH AND ALLIED INSTITUTIONS (ASURI), NLN CHAPTER is organising a Library Advocacy Walk (LAW).

LAW is a clarion call to all Nigerians to demand the completion of the National Library of Nigeria's Headquarter Building as a National Intellectual Storehouse and the country's giant memory.

ASURI therefore invite all Library professionals and stakeholders to join in the walk planned to hold as follows:
Date: Tuesday 17th October, 2017
Time: 9:00AM
Convergence Point: Uncompleted NLN building, beside National Mosque, Abuja.

The LAW will match to the Federal Ministry of Education to deliver an Appeal letter to the Hon. Minister of Education and proceed to the National Assembly and deliver Appeal letters to the Committees of Education of the two Chambers.

. . . Join LAW to salvage the National Library of Nigeria.

A more active approach has been taken by libraries offering educational classes or one-to-one tutoring programs. Many libraries have outreach programs designed to meet the needs of specific groups of people with limited educational skills. Library resource materials are distributed to the institutionalized, including those in prisons, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and group homes for the elderly and disabled.

Adolescents have been targeted because lack of education has been associated with other problems including crime, pregnancy, unemployment, drug and alcohol abuse, and school failure. After-school and summer educational programs have sought to encourage young people to become employable, contributing members of the community and gener
