Ohangwena Regional Study and Resource Center (ORSRC) is a library at the Helao Nafidi town council.[1][2] The library opened in 2014, and it was officially opened by then-president of the Republic of Namibia, Hifikepunye Pohamba.
The library is one of three regional libraries (the other two are in Oshakati, Oshana; and Gobabis, Omaheke). These libraries are also known as Regional Study and Resource Centers (RSRCs), and were funded by the Millennium Challenge Corporation (Namibia Account) at a cost of N$167 million[3] A majority of learners in the townships of Eenhana and the surrounding areas make use of this library to study and research.[4]
Funding
[edit]This library was made possible by the funding from Millennium Challenge Account in partnership with the National Library and Archives service (NLAS), a division of the Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture (MoEAC)[5]
Services
[edit]The RSRC provides a wide range of services from computer training and business programs to printing services and study spaces to the diverse clienteles from Ohangwena Region and beyond[6]
