Minister of Culture, Gender, Entertainment and Sport, Hon. Olivia Grange
Minister of Culture, Gender, Entertainment and Sport Hon. Olivia Grange has encouraged Jamaicans to write and publish their own stories.
Speaking during a virtual celebration of World Book and Copyright Day 2021, on Friday (April 23), Miss Grange said it is important to write and “to tell our stories from our unique perspectives.”
“Our song writers are lyricists and many of our musicians are composers and our visual artists are story tellers. You, too, can publish books,” she said.
The Minister encouraged writers to make use of the provisions of the Copyright Act and other services through the Jamaica Intellectual Property Office (JIPO); Jamaica Copyright Licensing Agency (JAMCOPY); Jamaica Association of Composers, Authors & Publishers Limited (JACAP); Jamaica Music Society (JAMMS) and the National Library of Jamaica (NLJ), to protect and promote their works.
