The list of people whom the DVC met covers areas from Science Park, textiles and business, to Library and Information Science, from teachers to the Vice Chancellor Björn Brorström, whose senior advisor Sten Dellby guided the DVC throughout the day.

Thank you for paying us a visit, Papias. We are looking forward to meeting you here again.

URLS in Social Media

A training on Social Media for University Libraries and the University of Rwanda Library Services (URLS) specifically, has just been organised in Huye, facilitated by Ola Pilerot, University of Borås. 18 librarians participated and during the training there was also hands on training, such as the creation of a Facebook Profile for the URLS. We are hopeful that this will become a useful tool for communication.
