An article was published on my winning the Librarian of the year award in the Dec2006/Jan2007 issue of Moja! The CPUT's in-house newsletter.
UCT, my alma mater, also published a stop press article in their Monday Paper, volume 25 (27), 29 November 2006, at http://www.news.uct.ac.za/mondaypaper/archives/?id=6044.
"Darries is top title holder
UCT alumnus Fatima Darries has won this year's LIASA/Sabinet Online Librarian of the Year title.
Darries was one of 10 Library and Information Association of South Africa (LIASA) branch winners who became eligible for the national award. The Cape Peninsula University of Technology librarian was named Western Cape Branch Librarian of the year at the LIASA Western Cape annual general meeting earlier this year. She was also named branch chair, the most senior position at branch level."
