I finally arranged for representatives from the National Public Library in San Salvador to meet with the mayor of Yucuaiquín last Thursday, April 10, 2013.
Lilian Montenegro from the National Public Library met with Carlos Gutierrez, mayor of Yucuaiquín, and came to a tentative agreement to work together to open a public library in Yucuaiquín.
Mr. Gutierrez was left with a contract to take to council and forward to the national library in San Salvador in order to formalize the agreement.
Terms include:
Mr. Gutierrez allocates a space within the city to house the library and provides a staff person to supervise. The city also commits to seek out ways to grow the initial collection which is provided by the National Library.
The national library commits to provide training and support to the new staff/program and incorporate the city into the network of public libraries.
Mr. Carlos Gutierrez and I.
