When a session of the National Assembly can be extended past midnight, there’s hardly any surprise in watching an entity like the National Library Association (NLA) convene its meeting in the wee hours of the day to discuss urgent issues.
With the long weekend of Eid holidays already having underway, the NLA deemed it proper to hold a midnight meeting on May 1 as it has planned to organize a programme at the University of Karachi in the second week of the current month.
The meeting, lasting more than two hours, was chaired by the NLA President, Syed Muzaffar Ali Shah, and also attended by its Advisor, Syed Khalid Mahmood, Secretary General, Anwar Hussain, and Overseas Coordinator, Younis Hashmi.
Besides deliberating on the upcoming programme at the University of Karachi, the NLA leadership also brainstormed its future events including the proposed international conference planned to be held in December this year.
The Overseas Coordinator, Younis Hashmi, who is scheduled to fly to Canada on May 3, briefed the NLA officials about his plans to activate the librarians of Pakistan-origin living and working abroad. His initiatives were appreciated and he was assured the total support and cooperation of the NLA Executive Committee.
