Using GALILEO in Africa

Using GALILEO in Africa

While volunteering in The West Africa Theological Seminary Library located in Lagos, Nigeria during November,2009, I assisted with identifying subject headings and call numbers. In the accompanying picture I am training several other volunteers who were with me on this trip to identify the major parts of a book’s bibliographic record. The seminary is undergoing major renovation, and the library staff is in the middle of three ambitious projects: a) adding donated books to their collection, b) converting their card catalog to an online catalog, and c) preparing to convert their collection from DDC to LOC. I am continuing to serve in a volunteer role as mentor and consultant for library related questions.
