East Timor study tour

Patti Manolis, manager of library services for the Maribyrnong City Council, was awarded a scholarship from the State Library of Victoria for the purpose of undertaking a study tour of libraries and community building activity in East Timor over May and June 2004. Her very extensive report is called Biblioteka ba ne'ebe? Libraries where you going? [842kb pdf]. It has many illustrations.

She reported on public, special, school and university and college libraries. The inCite December 2005 issue will contain an article by Patti on her trip. She is inspired by the great people she met.
