The library will serve an area along the lakeshore that has no library facilities currently, yet contains a total population of approximately 14,000 people.
The picture shows the size of the brick structure that will house the book and study area along with the headmaster’s office. The building is situated at the Para Secondary School on the grounds of the Parachute Battalion in Senga Bay.
