Yvonne Nelson’s book will have to be approved to be stocked in public libraries – Ghana Library Authority

Executive Director of the Ghana Library Authority (GLA), Hayford Siaw has stated in an interview with Johnnie Hughes on 3FM Sunrise Morning Show that Yvonne Nelson’s recently published book will have to go through scrutiny and approval processes before it can be stocked in Ghana’s public libraries.

The Ghanaian popular actress, film producer, entrepreneur and advocate, Yvonne Nelson in her recently released book ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson’ has chronicled the events of her life. However, the controversial revelations of her love affairs with award-winning artiste Sarkodie in the book has sparked a lot of public discussion since its launch.

When asked whether the GLA will stock Yvonne Nelson’s book ‘I am not Yvonne Nelson’, Mr. Siaw said “It has to go through an approval process which has not been done and so once the acquisition team looks at it and make a recommendation why not?”

He explained that the Ghana Library Authority has an acquisition team that scrutinizes materials to ascertain their appropriateness and also establish which of the target group will benefit from the material.

“Of course it is an interesting read from what I have learned so far” the Executive Director added.
