TDA Executive Director, Ambassador Tewolde Gebru told ENA on Saturday that the two-floor library will be constructed in Mekelle Town, Tigray regional state.
He said a fund raising program will be organized at Sheraton Hotel and the Millennium Hall in Addis Ababa on May 29-30, 2010 respectively to solicit fund for construction of the library.
Ambassador Tewolde said the library will accommodate more than 1,000 persons at a time.
Tigray State Chief, Tsegaye Berhe had laid a foundation stone for the library last February, the director said, adding, there are plans to solicit up to six million Birr through the program.
Tickets are available at Sheraton Addis, Harmony and Axum hotels.
