“Be a librarian” was the tag line for LAS at the NTU Career Fair. 19 volunteers from various libraries met with over 1,500 enthusiastic students. There were job vacancies from various libraries and the booth space was shared with the Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information. This partnership proved very useful as most participants did not realize that they needed to have a Masters degree in Information studies to be a qualified librarian. The students of the school were also on hand to answer questions on the program.

The booth volunteers from Management Development Institute of Singapore, National Library Board, National University of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University, National Institute of Education, Singapore Polytechnic, Singapore Press Holdings, and Temasek Polytechnic did a wonderful job in drawing the students to the booth and promoting our library profession.
