Three VT University Librarians attended the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) World Library and Information Congress (WLIC) 2013: Lesley Moyo, Jennifer Nardine, and Paul Hover.
Jennifer writes the following about her two co-presentations with Lesley:
In August 2013, Jennifer Nardine and Lesley Moyo attended the International Federation of Library Associations Conference in Singapore. They presented two papers at the conference, and had the opportunity to attend many interesting sessions by international colleagues. IFLA was rich with networking possibilities, and both Jennifer and Lesley came away with new collaborative possibilities. They also had the opportunity to explore Singapore’s richly diverse cultures – Chinese, British, Malay, Indian – on a variety of tours and in between conference sessions.
And here are the IFLA website citations with links to the presentations:
MOYO, Lesley and NARDINE, Jennifer (2013) A living network supports reference on-the-go. Paper presented at: IFLA World Library and Information Congress, 17 – 23 August 2013, Singapore.
