Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum <\/strong><\/p>\n

DEPUTY MINISTER of Education,
\nDr. Yaw Osei Adutwum, has admonished librarians in the various senior high schools
\n(SHSs) in the country to constantly read wide and seek more knowledge.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that acquiring additional knowledge would
\nmake the librarians more efficient to enable them support students in knowledge
\ntransfer.<\/p>\n

He gave the admonishment during the official opening of
\nan intensive training workshop for librarians in SHS in Ashanti, Bono, Ahafo
\nand Bono East regions in Kumasi recently.<\/p>\n

The workshop organized by the Ghana Library Authority
\n(GLA), in collaboration with the Ghana Education Service (GES), is seeking to
\nincrease the knowledge of librarians in the various secondary schools in the
\ncountry.<\/p>\n

As part of the programme, which is being facilitated by
\na team of seasoned librarians from the GLA and the University of Ghana, all the
\nregions in the country have been divided into zones for librarians to benefit
\nfrom the initiative.<\/p>\n

Continuing, the Deputy Minister of Education especially
\ncharged librarians to be patient and concentrate on students known to be
\nacademically weak in their institutions to help them to catch up with their
\ncolleagues.<\/p>\n

In this regard, he lauded the GLA and its partners for coming up with such a brilliant and educative programme to help upgrade the knowledge of librarians, urging the participants to take the exercise seriously.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hayford Siaw, the acting Director of the GLA, said the training forms part of government\u2019s agenda within the framework of the implementation of the Free SHS policy to build the capacity of librarians to promote quality education.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis policy seeks to equip school libraries within the
\ncountry with the necessary learning resources and supplementary reading
\nmaterials as part of the educational investment by government,\u201d he announced.<\/p>\n

He said \u201cthis training comes after an assessment of all
\nSHS libraries across the country, as part of the School Libraries
\nTransformation Programme,\u201d adding that resourcing school libraries is key to
\nensuring quality education.<\/p>\n

According to him, secondary schools whose libraries are
\nfacing severe challenges would soon have their problems resolved. He indicated
\nthat libraries having challenges had been documented and
\nthey would be raised to acceptable standards soon.<\/p>\n

Mr. Siaw also entreated students to constantly visit their libraries in their respective schools and read wide so that they would increase their knowledge in order to pass their examination and climb the academic ladder.<\/p>\n
