ISLAMABAD: A book bank has been established at the library of National Language Authority (NLA) as a study resource for the students of schools, colleges and universities. The book bank aims to provide maximum facilities to interested students and scholars. “Presently, over 35,000 books are available at the book bank and it would be expanded in future,” NLA Public Relations Officer Javed Malik told The Express Tribune. He added that the readers would have easy access to the books, with a simple registration process.
