Finally, who's my hero? I have a lot of them. Some of my favorite Library heroes are located. Right in
Quezon City in the Philippines, the faculty of the school of information there, the work that they do to
prepare Librarians for important information positions across the Philippines.
I'm thinking of the also the University librarian. Amy Lagrama who is a fantastic resource for Library
workers across the world.
Not just in the Philippines and the work they've done to preserve the history of the country and to make
that information accessible to the users of information resources in the Archipelago.
There are some of my library Heroes and I hope that they are some of yours is well,
So, thank you Rupert for giving me the opportunity to share my thoughts with the rest of the
community. And let's all put libraries at the heart of what we do.
Because libraries work because we do
thank you
