History
NCL was formerly known as the Tanganyika Library Service (TLS). TLS was established in the 1960s and modeled a western-style public library coupled with much influence by the Ghana Library Ordinance of 1950. Tanzanian library services has received capital and recurrent expenditure via the domestic government and foreign donors like Denmark, Britain, and UNESCO.  Tanzania Library Services Board jurisdiction does not extend to the part of the country known as Zanzibar which houses the islands of Unguja and Pemba. This is because Tanganyika and Zanzibar attained their independence in 1961 and 1963 respectively. They united in 1964 to form the United Republic of Tanzania. Like other African countries which attained their independence at this time, Tanzania inherited dual economies.
