The Bapatla district administration has set up a library at the district collectorate to encourage reading among government employees. District collector Dr V. Vinod Kumar inaugurated the initiative by donating five books and urging every government employee to contribute at least one book.
Four book racks have been installed at the New Video Conference Hall in the collectorate to house the collection. The collector placed five books on the racks to mark the launch of the initiative.
Vinod Kumar said government employees should continuously update their knowledge while discharging their official responsibilities. He said they should also develop an understanding of subjects that would help them contribute meaningfully to society.
He urged employees to voluntarily donate at least one good book to expand the collection and make the library a useful knowledge resource for staff.
The collector stressed the need to include books on the Indian Constitution, service rules governing government employees, administration, personality development and general knowledge. He directed the in-charge district revenue officer to appoint an official from the collectorate to oversee the library, ensure the proper maintenance and preservation of books, and monitor their use by employees.
