Product Description

In 1976, proclamation No. 50/76 gave the library the legal right to collect three copies of every material published in the country.[citation needed] In 1999, the library was reestablished by proclamation no. 179.1999 as a national institution, which resulted in structural changes and the mission to be one of the top five national libraries and archives in Africa by 2020.[2] It is currently a unit of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
