KOTA KINABALU: The new six-storey state library, which opened its doors barely two weeks ago, has to close its children’s section temporarily after vandals messed up the place.

He advised parents to be more mindful and to ensure their children would only draw or colour at the rightful places.“This library is not like the conventional libraries. Here, we encourage exploration while learning. “But this must be done within the designated areas and it is up to parents to have a sense of responsibility when using the library with their children,” he said.
