The National Assembly has passed the Books and Newspapers (Amendment) Bill, 2025, paving the way for the Parliament of Kenya Library to become an additional repository for the countryโs published literary and intellectual heritage.
The Bill, sponsored by the Chairperson of the Committee on Parliamentary Broadcasting and Library, Hon. Daniel Nanok, seeks to amend the Books and Newspapers Act (Cap. 111) to modernise the legal deposit framework and provide for the preservation of books and other published works in both physical and digital formats.
Once enacted, the legislation will expand the existing legal deposit system, which currently provides for the deposit and registration of books and newspapers through the Registrar of Books and Newspapers, with the Kenya National Library Service and Kenya National Archives playing key roles in preserving the country's documentary heritage.
