A publishing company, Clasiers Publishing Limited, has donated 20 books to the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre Library in Abuja as part of its effort to promote reading culture and contribute to national development.
Speaking during the presentation, the company’s Chief Publishing Officer, Mr. Sam Gaza, said the gesture was part of Clasiers’ corporate social responsibility and its commitment to giving back to society.
According to him, the donation is aimed at expanding access to knowledge and ensuring that more Nigerians benefit from thought-provoking works by notable authors.
“As a publishing company, we consider it essential to contribute to society by donating books to a functional and effective library where members can benefit from them — especially as these books are written by thought leaders whose ideas and stories are shaping lives,” Gaza said.
He added that the initiative also aligns with the firm’s goal of giving its books a wider reach and visibility.
“One of our core responsibilities as a publishing house is to ensure that our authors’ works are distributed widely. In the coming months, we plan to identify other libraries in Abuja and beyond to make similar donations,” he said.
Gaza noted that the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre Library was selected because of its reputation as one of the most functional private libraries in Abuja and Nigeria at large.
“We observed that the library is expanding its collection, especially to include more local content, and we felt it was the right institution to partner with in promoting Nigerian authors and their works,” he added.
