More Jamaicans encouraged to visit the National Library
MINISTER of Youth and Culture, Lisa Hanna, is encouraging more Jamaicans to visit and make use of the opportunities offered at the National Library of Jamaica (NLJ), to learn more about the country’s culture and history.
“The work that you are doing here is phenomenal and I would really appreciate if more Jamaicans come, see and learn about our history, the journey that we have made as a people, and even to see what we do with very small resources,” Hannah said.
She was speaking at the unveiling of the NLJ’s new logo yesterday at the library’s East Street office.
The minister also encouraged private sector persons who want to give back something to Jamaica, to do so through the National Library.
“I think the national library is one of those symbols that we can stand very proud on as Jamaicans. The rich history that you have sitting here and what you are able to collect is truly remarkable,” Hanna told the staff.
