The National Library and Information System Authority (NALIS) is celebrating after being recognised at the 2019 Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) President’s Service Excellence and Innovation in the Public Sector Award Ceremony.  On December 3, NALIS walked away with a Finalist Plaque in the category, Service Excellence, for its Maloney Public Library Project.

To be named as finalists by the IDB President’s Award esteemed judges, speaks profoundly to the success of the strategy employed by NALIS’ staff at the Maloney Public Library to engage in conservations, create connections in the community and build its collections to the benefit of the people of Maloney and environs.  The Maloney Library Project resulted in increased registration, library usage and the community’s participation in outreach and educational activities.

In delivering her speech at the awards ceremony, Rocio Medina-Bolivar, Country Representative at the IDB lauded the work of all the Ministries and State Agencies. She said, “The aim of these Awards is to highlight and recognise the transformational initiatives undertaken by entities within the Public Sector” and added that, “The Awards may serve as a catalyst to further promote the metamorphosis of the public sector in a rapidly changing world.”
