Work has started.

The founder, Mr Yesero Mugenyi, ran his own law firm in Kampala and collected a large library, mostly of law books. He was the pillar of his family's education and loved to read.

Five of his six children became lawyers, and one became a judge. His youngest daughter went into the airline industry and became Country Manager for four airlines.

Books gathered by him, his children and his grandchildren are already being collected. The library will have a law section with past cases, a history section, and a digital collection with audiobooks, in a building of several floors that also goes below ground.
