Title 96-97 Final report: ALA/USIA library fellow to ethiopia
Date 1997-07-07
Description The National Library of Ethiopia (NLE) in Addis Ababa requested a librarian to help with staff training, evaluate organizational procedures and processes, and make recommendations to the institution. In order to work on the objectives, Library seminar/discussions were held on various topics for both professionals and support staff. A newly formed task force set out to write a mission statement with clear goals and objectives, worked on revising the 21 year old library guidebook for users, and started on completing the NLE's card catalog. Ultimately, the end results of these projects would be useful in getting aid from the government of Ethiopia as well as outside constituents. In addition to starting some ongoing projects, the NLE staff and I took part in many dialogs on library practices and concepts. We both hope that the NLE will benefit and grow by the Library Fellowship partnership.
