REPUBLIC ACT NO. 7743 - AN ACT PROVIDING FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF CONGRESSIONAL, CITY AND MUNICIPAL LIBRARIES AND BARANGAY READING CENTERS THROUGHOUT THE PHILIPPINES, APPROPRIATING THE NECESSARY FUNDS THEREFORE AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES
Section 1. Declaration of Policy. — It is hereby declared the national policy to promote the moral and intellectual well-being of the people: elevate the literacy level of every Filipino to the end that illiteracy is eradicated by the end of the century; and recognize the vital role of knowledge and information in nation-building by establishing public libraries in every congressional district, city and municipality, and reading centers in every barangay throughout the Philippines.
Amidst a sea of other basic priorities, establishment of these learning tools should be given much attention. This law is very essential for the growth of every individual in the community and for the community itself. This will cater the less capable individuals to be well-informed. Illiteracy will also be minimized if not eradicated.
In the current situation in other remote communities in the country, we would not want to see the children navigating ill or less-equipped within their technology-driven environments. We would not want to see children growing old without knowing what a public library is, and how much that public learning place can contribute to both their individual development and the transformation of their communities.
