      I am working with the Australian Volunteers Program, funded by the Australian Government through the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. My current role is as a volunteer Library Management Mentor at the University of Mandalay, in their Department of Law. The role primarily involves training teaching staff at the Department of Law in basic library management principles, as they do not currently have qualified or experienced staff to help manage their library. In addition, we are attempting to discover opportunities for improving the library's technological infrastructure, to better enable students to access the resources they need. Show less
