Ghana has a low youth literacy rate. Access to quality education is scarce across the country, and traditional cultures are at risk of being forgotten. Libraries in Ghana can help address these concerns and more, but are underfunded. Because of insufficient training opportunities, librarians lack the skills to adapt to the needs of their communities and provide innovative services that can enhance community development through education and culture<\/p>\n
