The full impact of the Kumbo Public Library is hard to convey. The fact that approximately 100 people, and oftentimes more, visit each day may serve to paint a small picture of how well loved and used this community resource is. That teachers from area schools and vocational training centers bring classes to the library after school hours and on weekends may also illustrate the degree to which the library is bolstering local education.
The following photos show how crowded—yet hushed and serious—the library became during the week leading up to the examination for the General Certificate of Education. Final year students filled the library studying for their big exam, which is necessary to graduate from high school.
Public Relations Manager Ntani Divine writes, “I want the world to see the impact of the Kumbo Public Library in the community of Kumbo. I want those who donated money and books for the library to see how it is serving the community with knowledge.”
