The executives of Nigeria Library Association (NLA), Oyo
State chapter, have lauded the achievements of the management of The Oke-Ogun
Polytechnic, Saki (TOPS), during a familiarisation visit to the institution.
Dr. Olaojo, Olatunji NLA Chairman, who led the visitation
team to TOPS on Tuesday, said part of the reason for the familiarisation
tour was to solicit the support of its Chief Executive and the Polytechnic Librarian.
Rector of the institution, Mr. Oladeji, Mathew O., who, in
company of Polytechnic Librarian, Mr. Osunrinade, Olukunle. A. and other Library
staff, received the NLA team; said the institution boasts of a newly
constructed automated library, among other projects embarked upon by the
management.
Disclosing this in a release, TOPS P.A. Media, Mr Adebayo,
Samson A. said the Rector also informed
NLA Executives that the management releases funds to the library for the procurement of text books and other library
materials annually, hence, he enjoined TOPS students to make good use of the
library, saying "reading makes a man and readers are leaders."
The Polytechnic librarian, Mr. Osunrinade, O. A., in his own
address expressed his gratitude to NLA chairman and other executives for their
visit and appreciated TOPS management for its contribution towards the newly
constructed multi-million naira automated library.
Responding, NLA chairman, Dr. Olaojo, Olatunji commended the
Rector, Mr. Oladeji, M. O., most especially, "for being a man of
integrity, for his love, vision and strive for excellence which has
holistically moved the institution to a greater height," adding that what
he saw "is a great leap from what we have before and what we have
now."
He also advised the students, to, under the
Rector's good leadership, do their best to make sure that they are good
followers and make judicious use of the resources at their disposal.
"Students should visit the library regularly
instead of relying on Internet materials which are not always reliable,
well edited and at times do not contain genuine
information," Dr. Olaojo, Olatunji said.
