We are so happy to be here in Maputo, even though the workshop note books and pens are still left behind in Nairobi (to arrive this afternoon).
This morning, the workshop was opened. The team leaders Horacio Zimba and Veronica Trépagny presented the programme and the context. Veronica gave a background on the cooperation and a presentation of the University of Borås, before the actual workshop on the modern research library was started by Svante Kristensson, the University of Borås library director.
The aim of the introduction and workshop is for us all, Eduardo Mondlane and Borås, to have a shared framwork and point of departure for the cooperation. With exchanged ideas and experience (from Mozambique and Sweden) as a point of departure, we will be able to even better stake out possibilities together.
The introduction gives a context, with a focus on the research training partnership programme. It also focuses aims and objectives of the ongoing five year cooperatin.
Here is the introductory presentation and here is the short presentation on the University of Borås.
The modern research library workshop, is based on the university library of Borås and will focus on the roles of the librarian, research support and the importance of professionalism in librarianship.
