"content": "Provision of libraries in constituencies and counties is a very important move to improve education for our children. This Bill has come at the right time. If you recall, some years back, we used to have mobile libraries. These were discontinued and as a result, there have been no library services in most centres in constituencies or in the counties. This Bill is going to encourage the youth who have been idling to spend most of their time in libraries. We should also encourage stocking of relevant books in the libraries. I hope the National Library Service will be advised to make sure that books are provided in the libraries. First, get the libraries constructed in every county or sub-county and then make sure that all of them are equipped with the necessary books. If this Bill is approved, it will be a very good encouragement for education in our counties. With those remarks, I support the Bill and urge all Members to fully support it."
