BRIEF HISTORY OF BANI LIBRARY
The Library was established during the time of ex-Mayor Procopio Nacito in the year 1952. It was open to the public thus serving the communities information needs. Mrs. Flordeliza F. Conte, the librarian, made the necessary improvements to meet clientele’s reading needs until the time that the municipal hall was range by fire in November 12, 1984. Temporarily, the municipal government was housed in the cultural center building including the library. On April 15, 1986, the newly constructed municipal hall was opened to doors to the public. Mayor Marcelo C. Navarro and Mrs. Flordeliza F. Conte, the incumbent Mayor and Librarian respectively, made solicitations of books from Asia Foundation, bridge to Asia and other NGO’s like the Rusell N. Price Enterprising and Summer hunt. Finally in 1987 a two story Legislative Hall Building was constructed thus the Municipal Library and Information Center was housed at the floor with an area of 12x8 meters and a capacity of 25 persons. |
