KUMAREE RAMTAHAL wins one of three ARL bursaries for IFLA 2009 in ITALY

One of my colleagues at the University of the West Indies Campus Libraries has won one of the THREE (3) free Registrations/Bursaries from The Academic and Research Libraries for an information professional from Africa, Latin America and the Asia/Pacific region.

This covers the registration/bursary expenses at the World Library and Information Congress: 75th IFLA General Conference and Assembly, to be held in Milan, Italy from August 23-27, 2009.

The conference theme is "Libraries create futures: building on cultural heritage".

This is not the first time that Kumaree has one a prestigious award. In 2008, she was the joint recipient of the ACURILEAN Star Award 2008 for excellence in Reference Services at the annual ACURIL Conference in Montego Bay, Jamaica .

Congratulations to Ms. Kumaree Ramtahal as she plans for her trip to Italy !
