Digital divide
According to findings of the study, there is recognition among local and national Government officials in Kenya, and across the continent, of the potential contribution libraries can make in education, economic development, employment, health, agriculture and closing the digital divide.
"Sustainability of library services and funding is needed and should be enhanced to make sure libraries meet existing community needs today and into the future," said Silas Kobia, Kenya National Library Services board chairman.
He addede community leaders, decision makers and other library stakeholders should provide policy and financial support to libraries.
