eThekwini Municipality Mobile Library has fulfilled my dreams

It has not been a long time since I knew ethekwini Municipal Mobile Library, but if I could write about the help I received there, it would fill a book. My gratitude is endless for the help, support and love I have and still am receiving.

Firstly, the librarians explained and advised us about the importance of applying early to higher institutions. then they helped me with choosing courses that are on the career path I chose.

They helped all the Grade 12 learners from thabela high with online applications to different higher institutions. I applied through CAo because I only wanted to study at uKZN but unfortunately, I had difficulties and I couldn’t get in for the 2022 class, but I would like to mention the many efforts made by library staff, trying to help me even after working hours.

In the middle of 2022, I was contacted and asked if I had applied for the 2023 academic year. they am studying at Fort hare university doing my first year Bachelor’s Degree in Social Science. I am staying in a university residence which I didn’t even know where to begin in terms of applying for it. helped me re-apply to different universities and for financial assistance as well; the library staff did the follow ups for me. this year I am studying at Fort hare university doing my first year Bachelor’s Degree in Social Science. I am staying in a university residence which I didn’t even know where to begin in terms of applying for it.

What I can say is that the ethekwini Municipal Mobile library staff has helped me a lot and I cannot thank them enough. Even now they continue to give support and check up on me as I’m still new in the province and in a new environment away from my family. Librarians are not just information workers but Jacks of all trades and masters of everything. the service delivery and assistance are free of charge and I will be indebted to them forever.
