Biblioteca Nacional de Moçambique The National Library of Mozambique (Biblioteca Nacional de Moçambique) is located in Maputo, Mozambique. It is located in a structure which formerly housed the Office of Finance of the Colony of Mozambique. It was designed by the architect Mario Veiga in 1904, and is located on 25 de Setembro Avenue.

Organizational structure

The organizational structure of the National Library of Mozambique was created by Diploma Ministerial of the Mozambican Ministry of Culture no. 103/92 of July 22. It established four units for the National Library, namely:

  • The Directorate, which is responsible for the overall management of the library;
  • Department of Technology and Training, which performs the technical processing of all materials received by the National Library, consults on the functioning of the reading rooms and depositary, ensures general reference service and bibliographic information, and implements institutional training.
  • Department of Preservation and Conservation, which is responsible for the conservation, restoration, and binding of materials of the National Library.
  • Division of Administration and Finance, which manages the basic administration, finance, and human resources, and public relations for the National Library. It also coordinates the National Public Libraries System of Mozambique (Sistema Nacional de Bibliotecas Públicas).
