A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of M. Bibl. in the Department of Library Science at the University of Zululand, South Africa, 1987. / Primary school children of the Mehlwesizwe Circuit, who are learning to read for the first time do not have sufficient reading material in Zulu. These books are essential to the formulation of proper reading habits and the stimulation of the desire to read.
An investigation was conducted with all lower primary schools of Mehlwesizwe Circuit, South African publishers, all local bookshops and libraries to ascertain whether any appropriate books in Zulu were available for purchase or loan.
Results indicated that few such books were available and of those found, 88 % were translations from other languages and were often unsuitable.1
Possible solutions and recommendations have been presented. / Human Sciences Research Council
