LIASA President's Award 2007 - Western Cape Wins !!!!
Bringing another trophy home!
August has certainly been a very exciting month. Lots of activities in the Library world in SA. Most importantly, I can boast with another award.
The Western Cape has won the Association's President's Branch Award. It came home this year after a sojourn in the Free State in 2006 after the very first presentation of the award in 2005 when of course Western Cape won it!!!
I may stand at the end of a long line of siblings, take care of myself in the last session after a long week on a Friday, and so on and so on. But. I was the first winner of the LIASA SABINET Librarian of the Year Award in 2006. I am the first Western Cape Chair that are not of the original team who started up the Branch. And I am my father's first child, and first and only daughter. I am first, first, first!!!!
Now for the picture which will be posted later.
