In the afternoon of January 20, 2012, the last working day of the Year 2011, Minister of Information and Communications Nguyễn Bắc Son paid a visit to the National Library of Viet Nam (NLV), wished the Directorial Board and staff of the NLV a Happy New Year and presented photographs to the Library.
The NLV operates under the management of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism but up to 85% of its national collection comes from Publishing Houses and Press Agencies of the Ministry of Information and Communications. With the functions to collect, preserve and promote the national culture written heritage, the NLV has established effective collaborations with Publishing Houses and Press Agencies throughout the country to collect the most sufficient publications in Viet Nam as well as publications about Viet Nam published overseas.
Seeing the important role of the NLV, on this visit to the Library, Minister Nguyễn Bắc Son has presented to the Library 2 panorama of Song Tử Tây Island he collected during his visit to Trường Sa and about 50 panorama of the 1,000 years Thăng Long – Hà Nội Celebration taken by himself. These photographs are very valuable to the NLV and are the only large size photographs on the theme Trường Sa and Thăng Long – Hà Nội Grand Celebration in the NLV’s collection.
This event has marked a new milestone in the cooperation between the Ministry of Information and Communications and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in general and confirmed the closed relationship between Publishing and the NLV in the year 2012 as well as the following years.
