library academy - mont fleur

This is our 3rd day at mont fleur, having wonderful time. This morning we had a presentaion from a young Prof du Plessis from the dept of economics. He told us that saving doesn's make one rich but productivity does. Meaning that as research librarians we need to be productive, our productivity will produce more researcher and our institutions and our country become rich. this might not mean rich in terms of money but in terms of knowledge.

The second presenter was Ms Kane an Associate Researcher from the University of Cape Town, who gave us tips on how to survive in the world of "Research".

That was not the end of the day. After Lunch we had Ms McLeod, she taught us that frustration is something that you as an individual you do to yourself, but we can get out of it by re-assessing the situation and think of the future in terms of "PURPOSE" "VISION" "INTENTION".
