I am also very pleased to inform you that 'I love my library' Video was very well received by NLB folks and students. We have shown this video in a couple of schools and it was warmly received. The Serangoon JC students had a gala time and we have used the video during our outreach and 900 students watched it. We have sent copies to the braches and they will screen it during the programmes, talks etc.
Most importantly, I have screened it today. We are on course at out Learning & Development Division. The trainer is Patrick Jones from United States. Jones is a frequent speaker at library conferences, having visited all fifty states, as well as in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. He liked the Video and requested for a copy and I gave him a copy of it. He sought permission to screen it in USA and during his talks. It is a moment of great achievement for the School and New Media Arts Team.
