Provincial Government<br />

access books and the Internet to enhance the quality of their projects<br />

while entrepreneurs can get onto the web to access tenders and other<br />

business opportunities. Toy libraries, which are a section of the bigger<br />

building, help the young ones to learn as they play.<br />

This development closes the technological gap between rural<br />

and urban communities. One example is that of 17-year-old Boineelo<br />

Moema from Itsoseng, who is a shining example to her peers at high<br />

school on the value of our community libraries.<br />

“Whatever information I need for my school projects I go to the<br />

local library and get whatever information I need either through books<br />

or Internet,” she says. “I am happy about the services the local library<br />

offers and my vocabulary has improved.”<br />

To date, CATA has built more than a hundred libraries spread across the<br />

length and breadth of the province.<br />

The department has committed<br />

itself to supporting the ideals<br />

of the Library and Information<br />

Association of South Africa (LIASA)<br />

when it says: “By providing access<br />

to information, libraries support<br />

communities in their exploring and<br />

challenging of barriers, values and<br />

behaviours as these relate to social<br />

inclusion. Furthermore, libraries<br />

engage communities on matters<br />

of social importance.”<br />
